I tried a gym class tonight.  You see, I've always wanted to try yoga.  They have this class at Gold's where we are members.  It's called Body Flow and it rolls yoga, tai chi and pilates all into one class.  I never tried the class before because I was afraid of making myself look like an ass.  There isn't a beginning level or anything.  You just show up and jump right in with where ever the level of the instructor is.  Hence the possible set up for failure.

This was a good class.  It was small.  The teacher was very nice and she kept the pace moving but at a good rate for either newbies or veterans.  And apparently I have great form.  Like everyone, she asked if I was ever a dancer.  Yes.  Do I look like one because everyone asks me that?  I mean ok, I do ballroom and swing now, but it has been years since the ballet, modern or anything else I did.

Anyway... she said besides the dance like quality of my movement, I understand the forms very well for never doing this before.  That made me happy.  I did not end up looking like said ass in the fore mentioned paragraph.  I think I will try the Monday Body Flow class as well.  That way if I do start doing rehearsals soon I would at least get one class in a week.

Here's to feeling centered!
