So, been doing good on the yoga thing. Twice last week and once this week (so far...I have high expectations). Princess was sick last night, and had a date or something last Thursday, so didn't go with me either of those nights. So the face that I still got up off my lazy ass and went speaks volumes of good things about me.
Anyhow, I have mentioned before that Monday isn't my most favorite of the instructors. Granted, last week and this week, Monday was better than the first time I attended her yoga class. So, I have to say that improvement on her part is definitely there. Now, that being said...there are a few things I would like to point out about Monday's classes...first, she doesn't give the actual Sanskrit name of the poses like Thursday and most of the other instructors do. She might throw one in there once in awhile, but not too often. Granted, I rarely remember the Sanskrit name and the actual pose, but I like hearing it and am hopeful I'll catch on eventually.
Second, she's a bazillion times better at yoga then I will ever be, no doubt about that. But, ability to do doesn't always translate into ability to teach well. I'm not trying to sound critical, even though it is coming across that way. Like I said, I am liking Monday's class more and more each time I go.
But, third and final point...and this is the one that I have the biggest "point" (I'm looking to avoid the words complaint or criticism) is that the past two classes (and even the first one I went to months ago) feel like that game we used to play in elementary. I think it was a memory exercise or something. You know the one. The one where I say a word or do an action. Then you repeat my word or action and then add one of your own. And still a third person repeats my word or action and then yours and then adds one of their own. And this repeats through the group until you have brain overload or something. There are hundreds if not thousands of yoga poses...all I'm sayin' is that we could stand a little more variations on Mondays.
