It's so infrequent that I get past Rhythm and Relaxation that I haven't learned more than that just yet. Internet says Rhythm, Relaxation, Contact, Impulsion, Straightness, Collection. We're working on Contact at lesson but I suck at it. I am just full of suck. Anyway, I do Rhythm a lot better with music, which was why the mp3 player in the first place.
