GOT STORIES~the player replied...

Thought to share this fun little story.

During a lesson yesterday.
A players left arm was contorting awkwardly.
After a couple instructional feedback comments about it.
The player while smiling said
Yes I remember what it should be doing,
but today it's in a mood!

Lol we had a laugh about that.

I replied, okay well let's see if you can take a moment for yourself to connect your brain with your left arm and see if it would like to join the rest of you with having a great workout.
So she took a moment and spoke to her left arm... And the left arm got on board with the rest of the body and everything worked out well!

Whether it's a mental thing or a physical thing sometimes taking a moment and organizing what the brain wants the body to do is a really important moment!

Also want to call out the value of the student having a sense of humor in her journey. No-nonsense-110%-intensity-ALL-THE-TIME can only lead to frustration and burn-out.
