The good kind of hurt.
So today, my first silks class. The feedback is much faster for silks. First thing, climb the silks. Fine, about 5 minutes to get the knack of wrapping and sliding, and then no problem. Compared to trapeze, which is now one week of "Hang. Hang some more. Wonder if I'm doing it right. Hang and lift my legs. Hang some more.". So, climbing the silks, taking my legs off, putting them back on, re-wrapping and climbing back down. Achievement! We like that.
And Nastyushka, of course, said "The dreadlocks, no good loose. Must tie them up." And our teacher Rowena said "Eh, they're ok for now." Which prompted a tirade of incomprehensible Russian from Nastyushka, culminating in the word "Discipline, discipline, discipline!" over and over. Which I guess means "Start out slack and you'll stay slack!".
And I think that means she cares....
