Yoga

I do vinyasa yoga.  I first started doing yoga in February of 2010 at 24 hour fitness and continued doing it for just over a year to March 2011.  I then had to quit the gym because of money and because of moving away.  My teacher there, April, was fantastic and she did a great job considering she had a class full of 25-35 students every class, and the stupid weights' class always barged in screwing up our shavasana (relaxation).

So I was sad to quit and super excited when I randomly found Namaskar yoga in February of 2012 through great reviews on yelp.  It's this studio a mile from me.  It's so great and so much better than 24 hour corporate fitness.  The first class I took was unknowingly a difficult class.  Gina is the teacher and it's nice to be able to get feedback and help on poses with the classes being smaller.  I like her style and that class, because even though it's difficult and a lot of people are ahead of where I am, yoga is still so individual that it doesn't matter what everyone else is doing, and also it's great because you can learn from them.

I can feel myself getting stronger all the time.  It's so fulfilling when you go further than you ever have before.  When I first was able to push myself up into wheel it felt amazing.  Gina also helped me strengthen my shoulders so over time I was able to get up into headstand.  Someday I'd love to be able to do even tougher poses but it's awesome because you just go at your own pace and steadily improve.

I have a livingsocial deal now so I have a month unlimited which makes it all even cooler.

Well, namaste.
