Sequence for Friday Afternoon and Saturday Noon

Hi All, There's Practice Friday and I'm teaching Class on Saturday. By the way, I'm starting to film my classes for assessment purposes and I'd really appreciate it if you were free on Saturday noon if you'd come be a student for the next couple months. I have a lovely group of regular students, but I need more practice observing a somewhat larger group.

I'll be making numerous recordings and will send out other calls... but please help me become a better teacher in these next few months so I can send Mary my best effort.

here are the sequences for friday and saturday.

Friday (this one is based on a benefit class that Jeff and I took out in San Diego. Mary and Eddy offered it to help out the Milwalkee community. Their center was hit by a flood recently.
