Favorite types of activities/sports?

Do Libras tend toward some kinds of sports more than others? I'm wondering if we could all respond and see if there are leanings towards some types of activities or sports more than others among Libras.

Do you like to watch team sports like baseball, basketball and football? Or do you prefer playing in a team rather than watching one on TV?

Do you like team activities, or do you prefer more independent workouts or activities? Are you competitive when playing or learning a sport?

Do you consider yourself athletic, physically active, or less active, more of an observer?

It would be great if you'd all respond. Maybe Libras don't share common sports or activities, but let's try and find out!

I'll write my answers in the next post.

    I don't enjoy watching team sports on TV. I do enjoy watching figure skating and gymnastics, they are more of an individual sport.

    The activities I choose to do are more individual, like hiking (often with someone, but not a group of people). I take flying trapeze lessons and like challenging myself to improve but a team is not depending on me. I take lessons in another aerial art, too, called tissu or silks. It is a very independent sort of activity.

    I do enjoy the team effort of the other classmates on the flying trapeze, we help each other with the fly bar and scooping to the platform, and without the flying trapeze catcher none of it would happen at all. So I enjoy working as a team in this activity, but generally don't go for team sports.

    I find I am less competitive than others I know.

    I consider myself to be physically active, but not athletic.

        I started with flying trapeze lessons, first just a few a year at a Club Med, then 3 years ago started taking regular flying trapeze classes at a circus school. There I saw people on other circus apparatuses and tried a few of them, trampoline, static trapeze and aerial rope. I liked the rope classes a lot, it was challenging to learn the wraps and drops and great exercise to hold oneself on the rope for longer and longer periods.

        I moved to L.A. last year, temporarily, and could not find classes in aerial rope, and there were classes available in tissu. So I transfered what I knew from rope to tissu, there is a lot of similarity. I moved back to the S.F. Bay Area at the beginning of the summer and am sticking with tissu. I like it as much as flying trapeze now and take regular lessons. I have my own tissu now, too, it's pink!

    i love walking in nature...in fact once I'm amongst the trees, or near an ocean, It's not easy to leave.

    I also LOVE Dancing to music...sans the alcohol vibe...

    future plans to get more into yoga type movements, to keep up flexibility and strength...

    sports...not so much...too much aggression and competetiveness for this Libra soul

    ...oh and I also enjoy watching ice skating, gymnastics too...

    I'm very into dancing. Particularly English Country Dancing which is generally quite simple in footwork and therefore allows for lots of flirting.

    Been doing DDR at home lately.

    In high school I did saber fencing and tae kwon do, also some ballet, tap, and Irish step dancing.

    My inclination is to participate, but I find it difficult to make the effort to find opportunities to participate, if that makes any sense.

    I'm really into tennis, I love watching it and playing it. I used to be into a lot of sports, basketball more than the rest, but my interest faded at the end of high school. It was a little while after high school when I started getting into tennis. I can be really competitive when it comes to playing or learning a sport, but the amount of my competitiveness depends on the amount others are throwing off that I'm playing with.

    Other than tennis I work out usually a couple times a week. I started going to the gym with friends but now I go by myself. I would say I prefer independent activities because when I'm working out by myself I can focus more on what I'm doing and not get sidetracked.

    I would consider myself athletic.
