The yoga classes have somehow evolved into sessions of extreme performance art and creative mental dance. Yesterday, for instance, we tried to become one with the sinuous forms of this exotic looking flower called the bird of paradise...
Too bad, none of us ended up quite like this bloke:
Even secretly-super-yogi-power-(e:Paul). HEHEHE
But I maintain that I could have totally done it if I were at that crazyawesome beach in the background. You shouldn't believe anyone if they tell you that it depends on the extreme flexibility of hip joints and core balance. It's so obvious that you need to be at the beach.
Oooh, there is more. Erin also demonstrated to everyone how to stand on our heads.
This time everyone in the class ended up like this.
Except me. I was stuck in Figure 31 for an eternity...
before this rather unfortunate image made its way into my head: "And yet you incessantly stand on your head - Do you think, at your age, it is right?"
I wimpily decided it probably wasn't, at that particular time and gave up.
But hey, all was not lost. I was able to do the exclusive "Erin-asana" - an inspired soulful yogasana conceptualized and breathed into life by the one and only Erin at Hand to Heart. It's so exclusive, I can't even find a google image!
After class, Paul and I got a bottle of vodka (if you are thinking that it was probably to drown our mediocre birds of
Too late. It's time to honour your practice now. Or come to another adventure with us next week! :-)
Sorry I missed your comment. I meant that yoga has become a sort of "dance" for me now so the OCD sentiment came too late. :)
It's plain (and hopefully) odourless vodka. I mean to emulsify aromatic oils with water with the alcohol for light body sprays. I haven't had the time to open it yet.
They probably do yoga when they know the tide is out. ;-)
Without following the Link see they have in there so that after class you can get real world practice on the thugs! HA!
In Terms of the Topics I don't think it is to late.... I think that at the Bottom of your blog there is some symbol where you can edit the post and from there you could change the Category and then hit post I'm sure (e:Paul) could give you more info....
So How was the Vodka and was it plain or Flavored ? Or was it mix with something else?
It Terms of Yoga you can't trust those pictures and here is why! They are taken for the point of looking pretty with the water behind him and the nice white sand... But if you where doing Yoga wouldn't you want to know where you were as compared to water you know so you don't get wet (there are these things called tides)..... Also wouldn't you like to look at the relaxing water?
How about capoiera? :::link::: I wanted to join and even checked out the place and the hood in detail. But it's a bit too far away and not in a neighbourhood I want to be around on foot at 9:30 PM. If it were on (e:strip) I probably would have gone. I have too many competing interests now and I just can't fit in one more class...
You could always try our hip hop class which is pretty active and charged but you probably already know all those steps we are struggling to learn! Seriously, we look like we landed here yesterday from Mars. We might look even worse to someone with such advanced dance skills as you have!
Then there is the popping class - on Thursdays at 8:00. I wanted to check it out but I have salsa on Thursdays and yesterday, when I didn't have salsa, I had work to do.
I like yoga a lot but I am starting to feel like I want to try something more active. The thing is I am not into fighting.
