Footwork Milestone

Yes, it Finally Happened

Today, despite my lack of sleep for a while, I performed a very concentrated and stable Wing Chun practice. 

After doing my favorite punches in the air, singles, doubles, triples and quadruples while standing on one leg and then the other, I moved to footwork. 

And finally, finally. Both sides were parallel. Overwhelmingly enthusiastic, I did any footwork exercise under the sun (and in my saved videos). Still both parallel. What in the world? Are these my feet? Or someone else’s? 

I’m not being complacent nor do I think higher of myself in any way. It could have been luck, after all. Who knows what happens tomorrow? 

I just wanted to save the date when it finally happened. 29.10.2024 it is. I know it happened once in my life, haha! 

Lets see what tomorrow brings. For there’s only Eskrima to be done for today. 

Lesson of the day: don’t let any success go to your head, ever. But stop and smell the roses for a bit, before the aroma wears off, which it does even as you smell them.
