capoeira log 8

sat (7/12/08):
in the park, we practiced floreiros again, by the nethermeads. the most memorable sequence:
au de caluna (sp?) - slight spin over into negativa - queda de rins into negativa - role

tues (7/15/08):
conditioning:
au stretches + au stretch pushups, negativa pushups

sequencia:
switch jinga - mea lua de frente (leg goes back) - esquiva parallel - negativa - quick slidy get up thingy - martelo - that standing rasteira variation - esquiva left and right

practice:
queda de rins esquiva - head au or head spin
: to do head au, you lower yourself on one hand from the negativa, let your head touch the floor now, then slide your legs over while your other hand catches the floor, and then your legs fall back into negativa.
: to do head spin, it is kind of the same thing, only you throw yourself inwards. we'll see.
