We started with a Devotional about letting go of fear and not looking at fear, but looking to God to help us overcome fear.
After the Devotional, the Pax warmed up with the 8 Pieces of Brocade (Ba Dua Jin) Qi Gong forms and then moved into yoga and stretching for the main beatdown.
Thanks to his millennial mentor (Tweetsie), YHC upped his Gumby game by using Spotify for some delightful Reggae music and new Devotional app.
It was an honor to lead.
