Thank you!! It was good to watch blind vs front!
This is Concept Transfer: Send And Go, and BC to the Tunnel… The first clips I left out to get my four… The first two one-step sends from 3-4… I think those went fine did one of each… Then the breakdown of blind cross to the tunnel (5-6)… First time on both sides she went into the tunnel. I included both of those reps. First one I was for sure late, I cheated a bit on that rep and let it keep rolling to the redo. I was much more on her path for this one. On both sides we did two successful reps after that I left out. We ended with one rep of the full sequence on each side. I included both of those reps. Jumps are still at 10″, I figure I will go to 12″ after this.

I love your comments, they are always spot on! I tried walking with words, it’s definitely helpful! I didnt video though. CI do try hard on the stay and releases as it’s definitely been an item I’ve struggled with and made improvement over time.
Here are the blinds and fronts. I left everything at 10” since those jumps are now where the crosses are. But yes, 12.5 months and probably around 20” I need to practice measuring!

Love the Find My Face game idea! I loved that game, did not need to go look it up. We had storms for several days, so this was a good one to play! I should probably revisit it occasionally.
First two week two jumping games. Jumps are at 10″. Timing and connection… I think went well minus words… the first rep I said right instead of left on that middle jump, but knew it, so just left that one off. Then again somewhere in the middle. Words and I are often not friends, which is why I tend to end up with minimal words. I’m trying though! I included first last and one random middle. I only cut out two reps. The next one was the first two of Wraps!. She did great, never looked at the tunnel. Only did 4 reps with the first on each side rewarding the wrap.

Wingin’ It Four reps, first last and two middle including one where she bit my arm vs wrapping. Ooops

Thank you! We did the part three and I had my first class fail… forgot to start the video. I actually think I have done this once before, but it was something shorter so just did a quick few reps. So here is a picture of Bokeh after we did it! She also came in season last night, just FYI…
She got many treats and toys for her birthday! But we also spent last week shuttling around getting our first grown up clearances. Great thing is hips and elbows look wonderful! I love having prelims done at 12mo as it’s before you start doing anything serious for sports. So now back to class focus!! I love the Lazy Game! This has been in my repertoire, so we have done “part one” in the past and pretty much the exact way you do it. For this session I did part one and two first and last reps or each, plus one middle. It’s all one video and still very short. Part two is not something we have done.

I have 4 foot bars and I usually use those and kinda guess measure 6′. This was much easier! I did measure my weave poles to see if those would work, but they are 40″. The 3 foot bar is going to be a great addition for grids!!
We did the first part of the starfish today. The camera seems to be in the worst possible spot. Sorry. It took a bit to sort out for me, but I think we got better as we went along.

Thank you! That is really helpful for the backsides especially. I will work on that. They were really fun drills.
Today we did the accordion grid, I noticed you using a bar to measure, I thought brilliant, so cut a 3’ bar today. The jumps start spaced out 6 feet, then added/subtracted 3 feet each time. Jumps are locked in at 8”. Reps 2/4 she just took a big bounce jump. So that would be 9’ spacing.

New games!
I think we started off poorly on our first backside rep, played a bit of tug and restarted. Otherwise was pretty happy with everything!

We started off a bit rough, but I think we finished strong! I love the screenshots so much! I think I did good on my body and lines on this one! I decided I am going to use “Zip Zip” for a tunnel threadle. This is the first time she has heard it.

I forgot to post my video from yesterday! We did the first part of turn aways. I had to work through a bit of communication and mechanics, but I think we got better as we went through it!

Oh those rear crosses… I love the visuals so much! THANK YOU!
Today was mission transition and zig zag. I thought both went well overall. Mission Transition I feel like I did much better on the first side, then struggled with how to time.

We have had many days of rain! We worked on other inside things, but nothing from class. So back at it with the next two.
Layering. I think this went great! I think you can see, but I had a cover on the other side of the tunnel.
Rear crosses. I went back to the first exercise and tried the changes jump further and using an empty bowl. Then tried food at the end. Overall this went all crummy. Definitely the kind of session I would normally just delete the video and avoid trying again until I had forgotten about it. But here it is.
That makes total sense, I will use the bowl next time. Again, I love the screen shots!!
Today we did the serp and ladder grid. The first rep of the serp went into the tunnel 🙂 but great after that. I tried to make sure to really look toward my hand after. She a smartie pants! These are fun to see her really understanding the difference! For the grid we have previously done four jumps in a row in our in person class and also worked on it as homework as well… so we just went right to three. We had not done the angles and we are supposed to work on that as well, so we did both. Jumps are spaced at 6 feet with the bars locked in at 8″.
