My first Jam!

On 28/08/08 I went to my first Jam session at a place called Youth town ( a recreational center in town, the specific place we were practicing was half of a basketball court). Being my first time at a place like this I was naturally nervous, seeing all the other people pulling of these amazing moves made me feel even worse. My friend and I found a place (in the corner) where i sat for most of the night! I stretched (not enough it would seem as later i would hurt myself) and tried a few things I saw others doing. After failing miserably at most of the things I attempted I would retreat back into my corner.

While my first Jam was relatively uneventful, I did learn a few important and useful things, I was introduced to most of the people who were there. Knowing these people will hopefully be very useful in the future, when I want to learn to do different types, and increasingly more difficult moves. I also learned that this was going to require a lot of physical fitness.

Bellow i have included some pictures of me trying to do moves (freezes specifically) that i saw other people doing at "My first Jam" ( the pictures were taken at home because I had no camera) at the Jam
