2 hours of walking around on the floor of the empty studio, I sat down in frustration. Obstacle upon obstacles I've encountered and this one is the worst of it all involving technique… The dream of the ol' days came creeping up behind me and I almost surrendered to its warm glow of comfort. Yes, I needed comfort that moment.

There's a problem with my basic technique and I've found the root of the cause. A deformity in my leg bones caused by playing soccer prevents me from positioning my foot in the correct position for proper stability. My body compensated it by opening the hip out, which prevents my waist from twisting correctly.

This problem, unlike the ones before, cannot be corrected by muscle training or correction of posture, because it is in the bone structure.

Good news is that I've succeeded a few times to do 1170 degree spins. It feels as if something just clicked and I understand. I feel like Neo, looking at the spoon and on the edge of comprehension.
