Finally pulled it off! I went to a yoga class and was not disappointed. I’ve been to a few classes in just a couple of days and really enjoyed the experience.
As soon as I shook off the nasty cold I had, I was totally ready to hop in a class. The schedule was a bit tough to fit into my normal week, so I made sure to move some things around to give some of the different classes a try.
Some of the classes were just like the video series I was following along at home, a variety of poses to build a combination of strength, balance, and flexibility. One of the classes, however, was pretty intense. A class called Yin focused on stretching and opening up connective tissue which involved holding some stretches for what felt like an eternity when holding just a single pose. One of the poses stretched out the glutes and hamstrings incredibly, in regular yoga it’s called the pigeon pose but in Yin, it’s called swan if I remember correctly.
The regular practice has made me feel amazing over the past few weeks. I couldn’t say all the tightness and soreness has been eradicated from my body, but damn do I feel better. The other morning when walking out of my apartment to head to work, right after I came from a class, I felt like my legs were floating. I would recommend everyone at least give yoga a try, even just following along with online videos for free, but a class is where you will see major progress start.
I’ve really enjoyed this trial so far and hope some of you were able to join along with this one or have at least been inspired to give yoga a try. Be sure to come by next week when I reveal what I’ll be getting myself into next!
