End of week one

I'm sitiing in bed as I reflect on the end of my first week.
My body feels alive, or broken depending on how you look at it.
Sleeping is not working out so well at the moment as I spend the night teaching a class of students that I really believe are in my room. This vivid dreaming is something that comes out most when I am over tierd, times of change and when i'm focusing on being good I think. I can't switch my mind off from my daily tasks and my future dreams! I wake up with a stiff neck from all my jumping up and down, ahhhhhhhhhhh this is a bit of a curse of mine as my nearest and dearest know oh too well. I know its a good path to be on and I will adjust to all my changes and come out stronger for it. Well thats what usually happens....

London is the city of movement I quickly adapt to the city speed and always move with purpose. I enjoy the constant pace, and the thick blanket of commuters taking steps towards their goals. I ask for directions alot which of course isn't a great help as none knows anything about the area they are passing through! Why does none live anywhere? i'll never understand that about this city....not even the shop keepers can help. Maybe it's some government enforced rule on being too friendly.
Cycling in London is very liberating if not hell raising! I feel great on the bike and accept that the way I learn routes is by getting lost and learning by doing rather than looking at those colourful wiggly lines they call maps.

There is so much movement and space study to do here. I Just sit back and watch the patterns and use of space before me and i'm hooked.
To study the body and it's movement both functional and creative in London throws up completely different questions to studying in the country or the basque country for example.
I see people in london operating inside a overpowering landscape, the factory of their life. In areas of natural beauty and landscape the person reflects their surroundings differently.

My studies have begun well I feel stimulated and hungry for more. The task of doing presentations, leading and analysing classes, preparing papers and group conferences with me and my practice at the centre is well suitably challenging. I'm tuning back in with how I like to work and the kind of worker, leader and person that I am.

I run best on my own.
