fixing my legs

Today I'm grateful for:

A good gyro class with the parallel attitudes, both Adrianna's and Gino's quad stretches which maybe made a big difference, Gino taking the time to help me fix my tours en l'air

I've been frustrated for weeks by how I can't seem to do a tour en l'air, especially to the right, and because class ended early, Gino was able to fix it by establishing the correct habit. He started slowly by going back to something I could do correctly, in this case, a grand changement, and then we started adding a little bit of rotation, 1/4 turn, then 1/2 turn, then I got to 3/4 turns successfully. He said if I do this for a month, I'll have double tours. I don't know if it's right, but I'm glad we took the time to break it down this way.
