My body knows better than I do what it's supposed to be doing, apparently.
In class today we did some exercises, some of the waza even, with our eyes closed. We'd switch from doing it the usual way, to then doing it with our eyes shut, and it's impressive how much of a difference it actually does make, how much our vision can throw us off. Apparently the performance difference between eyes wide open and eyes wide shut (sorry, Stanley), was beyond noticeable.
You'd think the blind girl would be ahead of the game on this one, seeing as how I’m none too good at seeing; but, sadly, I was not.
Interesting exercise though. I'd like to try that again.
