Shi let out a small sigh before standing up and taking a deep breath. "Ok.. Relax.." She then went through a set of hand seals while focusing her chakra into the sand around her. Once the seals were done she held out her hand keeping her palm flat and said, "Suna Hogo Sochi no Jutsu!" Sand in the area was slowly forced into a circular shield that hovers just in front of her palm. She grinned happy that she had got it the first time until she tried to move her arm and the circular shield made of sand broke apart and crashed to the ground. "dam.."

Shi quickly went back to the scroll and decided it would be best to read it over. "Suna Hogo Sochi no Jutsu.. Extending their arm in a specific direction, the user forces sand in the area into a circular shield that hovers just in front of their palm. The shield may be moved so long as the user keeps their palm flat, making it a useful defensive jutsu, though the moment the users hand starts to close, the shield will collapse. However, at a higher rank, the shield may be frozen in place, allowing the user to use their hands to form seals for other jutsu’s." After reading it for the final time she took a deep breath before she went through a set of hand seals while focusing her chakra into the sand around her. Once the seals were done she held out her hand keeping her palm flat and said, "Suna Hogo Sochi no Jutsu!" Sand in the area was slowly forced into a circular shield that hovers just in front of her palm. She then slowly moved her arm around while keeping her palm perfectly flat. "Think I got it.." She then closed her hand and watched the sand crash to the ground.

(posting from my PS3...blagh)
Zane watched her stretch as he took his stance. "Do not make excuses....that's what my previous partner used to tell me all the time," Zane said, refering to Luo the Mizukage. It was funny...if it wasn't for Luo constantly pushing him when they were genins in the same squad, Zane wouldn't be as strong as he was now. "This style, it's not about punching and kicking, it's about focusing your power...relaxing the muscles in your body to attain maximum movement...a heighten state of reflex in order to counter an opponent's movements. For this you do not need a partner...but it does help," Zane explained as he lunged forward. "Now I want you to dodge, use your flexible body and move gracefully, like a dance, to evade my strikes," Zane told her he aimed his palm at her chest. He was only going at half speeds, going fast enough to pose a challenge. Knowing she would dodge, Zane went for a horizontal chop with his opposite hand, and then followed it up with a leg sweep. A 3 hit combo.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx▼ x S u n a g a k u r exxxxxxxxx[M]arlene listened, having never have gotten such in-depth explanation of the style before. "But I am without knowledge... and all I have been told has been by you just now. Koizumi Kazekage gave no such directions on how to move and informed I am required to find a partner. It was only with Letti Kazekage that I became aware of the requirement of being relaxed and fluid." Marlene explained, muscles tensing out of habbit before she forced them to relax as if earlier when Etsushi had her pinned against the wall. Marlene tried to bend back, breathing out and trying to stay consistant in her movement's flow. Marlene was fast enough to dodge normally, but she needed to get used to the flow of Pi Qua Quan. The blond landed on her hands, her one foot flat on the ground as her other leg swung round to the side to stand on the ground and allow her other leg to go up and over her head, avoiding the blows. Foot on the ground, Marlene stood on a single foot, crouched down low.

"One more time!" Zane exclaimed as he spun around and aimed a kick to her head. If it hit this kick would be a devastating blow to her...so she better not let it hit. As he knew she would dodge, Zane would place his foot down on the ground and lunged forward with that same foot and snapped his opposite foot up to kick her chin...2 hits.

"Good...good..." Zane said as he stopped with the attacks. "We have just worked on both your movements and reflex. Now it's time we work on your flexibility," Zane said as he crouched down, bending his knees slightly and placing his arms out in front of him. "I want you to take this position," Zane told her. "Practioners of this style are able hold a crouch or other such positions for hours at a time without their legs cramping. We'll just start with one hour..." Zane told her as he motioned for her to take the same position.

Shi let out a small sigh before returning her attention to her scrolls that she had laid out around her Gourd. "..Hmm" She quickly went through the scrolls till she found one that would be rather helpful if she ever needed to protect herself. "Suna no Kyuutai?.." She quickly decided it would be best to learn this and read it over in her head a few times. "The user slams his hands down on the ground, bringing up a large amount of sand around him that will form a thick, powerful sphere around him, protecting him from all incoming attacks for a short remainder of time. This sphere will withstand almost any attack. While inside the sand sphere, the user is unable to perform any technique that requires the use of their hands and unless they use daisan no me, are not able to see outside of the sphere... So that's were that sand eye comes in handy.."

Her knees bent and Marlene shifted until she found a comfortable position to remain crouch in. Marlene tried to keep her muscles loose, so that way they would not tire too quickly, and concentrated on her breathing, deep breaths to keep the oxygen rich in her blood.

An hour has passed before Zane stood upright. Looking around, he found something he was looking for. It was a basket full of a diffrent assortments of apples and oranges that they kept in the training facility as healthy snacks. Looking over to Cherry, he smiled. "Now, it's time to combine this with balance and posture. I want you to balance this on your head for the next hour while crouched," Zane told her as he held the basket over to her.

Shi let out a small sigh before standing up and taking a deep breath. "Ok.. this one should be easy.." She then went through a set of hand seals while focusing her chakra into the sand around her. Once the seals were done she slammed her hands onto the ground and said, "Suna no Kyuutai!" A large amount of sand in the area was slowly forced into a large sphere shape that surrounded her entirely, she normally got the basic shape of sand jutsus on the first try but the hard part was keeping them in their form for more then a few seconds.. She grinned as the large sand sphere seemed to keep its shape until a large crack appeared in the side of it then another and another until it completely fell apart around her.

"Good...now remain in that position for the rest of the hour," Zane said as he walked over to seal up his puppets, they had fixed the roof and now the facility was as good as new. At the same though, he kept another eye on Shi Motarasu, ensuring that her training was going well also.

Shi quickly went back to the scroll and decided it would be best to read it over again just like she did with the other jutsu. "Suna no Kyuutai.. The user slams his hands down on the ground, bringing up a large amount of sand around him that will form a thick, powerful sphere around him, protecting him from all incoming attacks for a short remainder of time. This sphere will withstand almost any attack. While inside the sand sphere, the user is unable to perform any technique that requires the use of their hands and unless they use daisan no me, are not able to see outside of the sphere." After reading it for the final time she took a deep breath before she went through a set of hand seals while focusing her chakra into the sand around her. Once the seals were done she slammed her hands into the ground and said, "Suna no Kyuutai!" A large amount of sand in the area was suddenly forced into a large sphere shape that surrounded her entirely, she had no way of seeing what was outside of the sphere and knew why the Sand eye jutsu was created. She sat in the sphere for a while just to make sure none of the cracks appeared like before. After a few minutes she released the jutsu causing sand to fall down around her.
