老師與學生
最近的一些心得感想:身體有特殊狀況,無法當老師嗎?如果你是過重的身材,卻能夠作瑜伽頭倒立,如果你有過脊椎傷害的歷史,卻可以彼拉提斯百式呼吸拍個5輪(整個騙肖有六塊肌都會喘噓噓),腦袋要輪轉,要懂著正面思考。如果你強調每項動作都完美,充其量你也只是個體操老師或是運動教練。如果你懂得思考自己身體的體位及受限程度,並且指導有類似狀況的學生替代的體位法或是樂觀正面的鼓勵學生:我這樣都可以做到了,那你呢?那你就是個好老師了。我從來不吝嗇地去跟學生分享我做不到的動作,比如說因為我的肘關節因為有先天過度伸展的問題,練習手平衡比較吃力一點,又或是我右側hip joint曾經有嚴重的拉傷而舞王或鴿王較困難。有時身為老師,因為尊嚴問題,只想要和學生分享自己練習可以登台或是拍照的動作。今天就算做不到某些動作,因為你詳盡的解釋動作或是分享如何轉換成替代動作,學生一樣是刮目相看。大家反而會因為老師不是完美的,而倍感親和力,減少距離感。除了照顧學生的身體,或許照顧他們的心是更重要的。 Here is my question: are you not qualified to be a teacher, if you have some physical weakness? if you are overweight, you can still a do headstand.
