The lyra is coming along!
I've been working on building up hand strength and such, and the pain tolerance in my back and my feet. I even tried putting on ankle braces for cushion, but the fabric caused my feet to slip, so that was no good. I just gotta build it up slowly, and patience is not my strong suit! It's just taking me longer than I thought to get certain moves. And it seems i find new bruises and such every time I practice. I'm loving the new apparatus though. Its been forever since I've had a new toy to play with. Fun times! :)
I had my first performance at Wave Street Studios on Friday night, and I think it went really well. Another performer took some photos, and was nice enough to send them over. I also took a few photos of my lyra "hickeys". I have a performance this coming Saturday as well, and I will try and get some photos of that too.
Wish me luck!
