I can relate with your frustration at being unable to ‘get your teeth’ into the process ‘as promised’. I have often wondered what stops me in these moments from asking for more. However, I have often gone through exactly this.

Sometimes a rank newcomer can provide such transparency to the process that the learning is larger than what the teacher knows. Other times, a master is so adept that the learning becomes almost intangible. I guess teaching and practicing are different skills.

Thanks for sharing this.

I feel like there’s a bit of a tension here between the method encouraging us to do less and requiring less effort, and the amount of preparation that’s needed to be able to train other people. I feel like David is possibly moving too far in the direction of doing less. Hopefully he’ll take your and others’ feedback into account for future trainings.
