Discombobulated in Balto.
Hi Dave:
It's the classic case of forgetting what I learned. 'Am I doing this right?' and 'What can I expect to see' in terms of progress?

Pose Method vs. TI?
I read the info on the site since it just happened to pique my interest. The prose on the site is kind of dense and hard to understand, so such pretense can sound pretty scientific sometimes. I...

Pose Method vs. TI?
I've been working at the Pose Method for running. I also noticed that Pose has a swimming method. The Pose technique seems very 'scientific' to me vs. TI, which is more of an art.

After the TI Clinic-what's next?
I took a TI clinic about a month ago but I'm feeling a bit 'discombulated' on what to do when I get to the pool.
Work on this drill or that drill? How far, how much time?
Does anyone out there...

Thanks for the validation. I've come to the conclusion that that's the way I have to do it. As I get more comfortable (I'm still something of a beginner) I can standardize it.
