Man, I haven't had a lesson in about a month! It's a busy time for everyone with competitions, ice shows, and whatnot so it's been nearly impossible to have a lesson lately. I've been working on lots of things this past month so as not to seem like I've been slacking so I was ready for today.
We talked a bit about how to structure my current program to fit the test requirements and he determined that we don't really need to change much. I already have two different spins, a choreographic step sequence, three single jumps (loop, sal, and toe loop), and a jump combo. However, we did change my loop-loop combo to a single loop and we added some new footwork. One thing that is really throwing me off is, since I'm officially skating for Bronze, I went back to using the longer cut of my program (the one that is 1:42 instead of the one that is cut to 1:40). You wouldn't think that two seconds makes a big difference but it does! I have so much time now! In fact, I feel like I have too much time and I'm trying to kill time until I get to my next element, especially now that there is only the one loop. I have to rethink this whole thing.
We worked a bit on the camel spin as well. It's about where we left it a month ago so I didn't really make too much progress on this. I'll keep plugging away at it but this may take some time.
Anyway, I have a lot to work on!
