Blog 5: Project Reflection and Working EQ
1. So far I have learned much about the safety and procedures of Bikram yoga but have yet to begin practicing.
2. My first interview was very useful, my mentor was able to answer specific questions and help me understand the most important facets of the subject.
3. So far I have gotten lucky finding a mentor and a good place for mentorship. I'm fortunate that the staff is willing to teach me about yoga and how to run their business.
4. I am yet to actually get into the studio. The grand opening got pushed back yet again because the city of Rancho Cucamonga is difficult to work with, however my mentor will start training me on Saturday.
5. I'm thinking maybe how does Bikram yoga help improve strength and flexibility because something like weight loss or injuries would be hard to keep track of.
Starting this weekend I plan on volunteering a few hours a week as a receptionist at the studio.

Blog 3: ESLR Goals
1. Bikram Yoga
2. This year I will stay on top of homework by turning assignments in on time, make sure all group members are on the same page before dividing work, keep written assignments on google drive to avoid compatibility issues/be able to work from anywhere and to be able to complete assignments without having someone walk me through step by step.

Blog 2: Summer Mentorship
1. 10 hours of extremely exhausting work. Sunday, August 11, 2013. Setting up chairs and ring boundaries, received judging credentials, judged assorted divisions, put away chairs and took down ring boundaries.
2. Ned Reber 909.948.1777 or 909.803.2777
3. What happens to judges who were assigned rings but did not check in on time or did not check in at all?
Why must judges adjust scores using standard deviation?
How can it be sure that a judge is being fair?
Does the standard deviation really eliminate bias?
Is the new IPad scoring system more effective?
4. I feel like I've earned a new respect for tournament officials. It is a lot of work to keep everything running smoothly and on time. The most important thing I've learned is the unique scoring method. Instead of scoring competitors in a scale of 1-10 they are ranked from 1st to last place and scored accordingly by 3 judges. This prevents ties and can help a competitors confidence being scored like this instead of being rated on how close they are to perfection.
5. After this ordeal, I doubt that I will pick sport karate as my senior topic. It's such a broad topic and difficult to explain and come up with a good essential question for.
