My instructor said something weird/profound to me last night - I wanted to get your take on it:
"You need to start making the form fit into your natural movement now - make the form yours. Move like you naturally would rather than how you've been taught. What I teach isn't how I train. Make your own shapes"

I went through part one of the form a few times, just letting it go. It felt great Much more compression and fluidity - my waist just seemed so much more relaxed and free. I was certain I must have been doing it incorrectly, but when I trained in front of the mirror I could see that the form was much better and still contained all the principles I work at. It was almost as though I'd stopped fighting my body - felt really good but really odd as well

Natural step forward?
