[Deep into the tree line and well out of sight of the main path, there's a little clearing with an ornamental fountain situated right in the middle of it. Next to the fountain is Yuri, doing a sword pattern. As the blade arcs through the air in a downwards, horizontal slash, the sword is suddenly released from his fingers and continues its circular path as Yuri twirls through the air, bringing the back of his heel in a devastating spin kick across the air where an imagined opponent would stand. As the blade comes full circle, he's suddenly seizing the still spinning hilt with his other hand and repeating the motion again, completing the circuit three more times. To some, it might appear as elegant and graceful as a dance.

To others? It's needlessly flamboyant. (Yet strangely effective.)

As the pattern comes to an end, Yuri lands back on his feet with the sword balanced easily across his shoulders looking none the worse for wear. The slight frown on his face, however is a little strange.]

Timing's off... I must be out of shape.
