>> every body should be a hollow body.

It’s important to keep the hollow body position in your handstand work, especially as we continue to practice handstands for our skill this month. Wednesday’s 9 a.m. class kept decent form across the board; photos from other classes are pretty telling as to who was holding a correct position and who got lazy against the wall. Keep that hollow at all costs! Great work getting upside down today — especially to those of you who didn’t think it was possible (ahem, Juli and Leimomi). It’s awesome to see everyone’s progress!

You find this photo:

  • A: Hilarious, because you know this one will probably work as well as Kula Ace’s owl
  • B: Worrisome, especially in light of recent decorative pieces installed at the box
  • C: Frightening, considering our current owl has a security camera embedded behind its eyes, which doubles as a recorder to improve Olympic lifting technique
  • D: Fitting, because only CFUM would rock a fake — yet functional — owl
