Took a Friday am class with Robin last week or so and she was great. She has a very relaxed and calm voice. She was the instructor which I've seen most practice poses along with us. This was one of the first classes I took and I wasn't sweating like crazy. My muscles were a little sore but my endurance seems to be improving. I struggled more with holding a pose in a depend asana than the out of breath cardio feeling.
Today on October 6, I went to yoga flow in the morning. I think this may have been one of my favorite classes up to date. John was subbing for Laurie; I really enjoy Johns teaching. I woke up in a good mood and didn't feel tired even though it was 8am on a cold Sunday morning. The class started smoothly but we quickly moved into the "flow" of things. We worked on a lot of sun salutations and we did quite a few poses in which we were half way forward folded with a straight back and circling our arms around. (Unfortunately my back is now sore from all this circling) Anyway the class flew by! and it was a great workout! He called each pose and it was easy to follow along but still challenging my mind, balance and over all body. To end class we played around with headstands…. And Wah-Lah! I did a head stand! On my forearms and yes slightly against a wall, but I did it and held myself up for what seemed like minutes! I am still super excited about this because not only was I scared to fall but went for it anyway, I did not think I would be able to do this for awhile. Practice makes perfect, So now my next goal is to do one away from the wall. Left yoga feeling great, Good day!
