Yoga

Just back from my first yoga class and it was fantastic. Around a mile or so from here a new business has set up offering cycling and yoga classes and Anna talked to the owner a couple of days ago to see if there would be a class suitable for me. So tonight I went along for an 'introduction to yoga' and ended up having a one-on-one class, which was great. The instructor was able to spend time explaining the movements/breathing perhaps more than she would normally, and she could work on correcting my 'downward-facing dog' (it needs a lot of work!). We covered cats and cows, warriors (I and II, no less!) and tree poses - it was an education.
Anyway, it was just what I needed - enough exercise to get me stretching and moving, but relaxing enough to fit with my current energy levels. I have some things I can work on at home this week and I've already signed up to go back next week.
One happy little yogi.
