I remember vividly the day I realized negative circles in the form. I felt enlightened for that particular form and that particular movement. Every time I performed a negative circle, it seemed a light bulb turned on and a spotlight hit my shoulder. I kept thinking, there’s another one. 🙂
The complex form became a little simpler because I could tie one thing together throughout. A bunch of arm movements became just one.
