Phoenix Boy At last I have risen from the ashes and three months after the accident I was able to return to my Fu Style class. Bagua is out but I can perform the 105 Taiji set with reasonable grace.
There is plenty of pain felt in the still swollen and stiff ankle, but the taiji movements are very therapeutic and result in a much loosened and happier joint.
My classmates are all learning Bagua Cyclone Broadsword which remains out of the reach of our hero for at least a little while longer. Bastards. However, the advantage of my limited physical dynamicism is that I am almost forced to emphasize the training of internal force and qi flow. Since that is the corner stone of all internal martial arts, I'm glad I am unable to be distracted by the bewitching forms.
I am a power whore by nature.
Good to be on track.  ¶ 9:59 a.m.
