Learning to fly

Last February, Yuki asked if I would be interested in trying an aerial silks class with her.  I was in the midst of a fresh and devastating break up, and willing to do just about anything that seemed difficult and positive, so I said yes.  We signed up for a 3 intro class package and started on March 15th. 

My arms were so sore the day after the first class that I could barely lift my backpack and it hurt to open doors.  I checked in with Yuki, and she said she couldn't raise her arms up all the way.  :) We could barely hang on to the silks our first night, much less climb them, but we were hooked. 

A little over a year later, I'm still pretty clumsy, but I'm learning to fly... 

P.S. The last item on the board in the bottom left corner of this photo says, "Be sassy AF".  :)
