Tammy,
While out of town last week I took a couple of yoga classes. I was the big dog as I was the youngest and most flexible.
So today I felt quite confident and went to your class. As usual, you were serene and glowing.
It was a small class so you announced that we would go a little faster today. First you giggled at my triangle pose and hinted that it looked more like a trapezoid; you had never seen anybody do that before. Don’t worry, the Guinness book of records didn’t come calling. When we were going into happy baby pose, I could see you were going to help me; however, the look on your face told me you had never seen a new born this sweaty. You held your nose and sprinted to help somebody else. Well, I’d been doing downward dog for many, many months so I thought l could ace at least one pose. Nope, my but wasn’t high enough; after all we are in Boca Raton.
Gotta hand it to yoga: go in feeling cocky and come out with your thong in a wad. Sometimes in class you tell us we should be happy and feel lucky; we have the luxury to be doing yoga.
