Teaching

In the training we had the opportunity to make lesson plans and teach a workshop with two other students,and a team.
Needless to say, I took the opportunity. At first I was going to end the class, but the day before we changed our minds and decided that I would do the beginning circle and the warm up.
I didn't get as much time to review the material as I would have wanted to but it really wasn't a problem. At one point during the circle I couldn't remember what comes next, but its hard to explain what I did to remember. I used my sense memory. I had a dance that went with what I had to say, and when I forgot I went back to the dance and used my sense memory.
I suppose my previous training made the warm-up sound more like a poem which I guess is ok.
There was some miscommunication within my group. People got hurt. As i see it, it all stemmed from a lack of trust. At a first look it appears that they didn't trust each other. But at second look, I see that they didn't trust themselves.
In order to do this work we must have compassion, but that starts with compassion for ourselves.
