i am reminding myself today that the student who stands with arms crossed, staring at me with challenging eyes and weight dropped into one hip as i explain concepts and ideas of movment is simply overwhelmed with insecurity and uncertainty about all that is being asked of her. i will embrace this insecurity and do all that is in my power to free her from it by supplying the information that is missing.
breathing in and out helps in this process. the arms are still crossed at week 4.

you're a good teacher. :) and i like this.
you are a good teacher! and you're the teacher for the reason- you know more than them. you have experience, you know what you're talking about. and there may be one person crossing their arms, but there are many others who love you and will follow you anywhere.
arms-crossed girl is so insignificant in your wonderful life.
