8 Sessions in one lot. Save more!
Being a student of Looner Academy is about being ready for new challenges every moment. Like this time when I called Lilu and told her to stand on the balloon with both feet to pop it. This was new to her but she’s one of my best students so far and always eager to learn more from me. Of course she needed some tutoring but after several demonstrations she did really well!
Since there are a lot of physical activities in our curriculum I included the special meditation sessions to our schedule. Of course they involve balloons too so the students keep exploring the various sides of looner life. Selenite and Celestine attended the balloon meditation session for the first time. Seems like it had a great effect on them… maybe even too great. They still should learn how to stay focused!
Some say I’m too strict with my students. I say that practice makes perfect and the final tests should be as challenging as they could be. Selenite and Celestine have been studying BTP since the very beginning and did really well. They thought that 24'' balloon is not that hard task for the final test but they were wrong. It was Qualatex 24'', best of the best, tested and confirmed being able to exceed the size of 24'' easily. So when I finished my Tuftex 24'' pretty fast it was just a false hope for girls to finish soon.
Lilu was looking for something in the closet and found our old inflatable that we used to practice with long ago. It was crippled and patched but still carried the sweet memories of the good old times we had with it when I was a student. Somehow Lilu was charmed with it too. I was going to throw this old toy away but Lilu begged for permission to play with them one last time and pop it. I agreed — combining learning and pleasure is our main approach here. And I even helped Lilu to give this inflatable a glorious end!
It’s hard to keep the discipline when you learn your students to follow their impulses. Sometimes it leads to unpredictable failures. Like this time when I prepared a bunch of helium balloon for nailpopping exam and asked Selenite and Celestine to watch for it for a while. And guess what! They started popping these balloons! I was mad at them and tried to stop it. They did it in so amateurish way… but I must admit that there was a true passion in their behavior. So I gave up and let them finish popping these balloons with the only condition — they would help me to inflate a new bunch tomorrow.
Even though our work is mostly play I prefer to indulge by best students with some pure unconditional fun from time to time. Lilu deserved it and she had a right for some kinky madness as a reward! I filled some big balloons with confetti and we were pumping them under us to enjoy massive and festive bursts. I must confess that was very exciting even for me, not mentioning Lilu!
The rules of the vinyl toy deflation exam are simple. The students must deflate the toy faster than me to pass. I go first and deflate the toy so they had the reference time that they should not exceed. Then Celestine and Selenite will do the same together. And if they do well we might deflate the last whale together… just for fun!
