standard lesson with Ikaika on 2/18/2010

Finally I'm writing the notes on the day of the lesson :)

1. We practiced on hold. I need to keep my right elbow down, starting from the time I raise my right hand, need to raise it slow. Need to give the sense that I have the confidence to take my time to make my choice.

2. hip twist slightly left, upper body slightly right

3. Do this 4 time in a row to make sure it is correct.

4. On every 2 (from 1& to 2) try to drop left hip, raise right hip (not stuck right hip out though) and turn upper body further (forward left), but still keep the right side to the partner. Need to try this more times to figure out what I can do, and need to do this on every 2.

5. Need to soften the knee and use the joints.
