Welcome to HoP!
Please do ask questions... I'm a forgetful sort and theres a lot of really great movements and variations out there that I did as a beginner...
Anyhow, a beginners mind has less limitations in them than a more advanced poisters mind because I know I get locked into all the things that are theoretically possible, but theres a lot of new stuff that falls outside the theory I currently know, so I no longer think of it.
I dunno why I jibbered all that, but beginner stages and lower intermediate stages are heaps of fun for their own reasons... good luck and I hope I'll be able to help you out at some point... (doing a teaching degree, so I get excited about teaching!)

Thank you both for your lovely replies ^^
Well as a beginner I'm having lots of troubles but I'm having the time of my life too!!
I'm afraid I'll still have to grasp the basics before even daring (hahaha) to ask but I'll definitely do it.
Bye!

Empty your mind. Be formless, Shapeless, like Water.
Put Water into a cup, it becomes the cup, put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, put water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow, or it can Crash.
Be Water My Friend.
