Forewarning - this will be short. I now remember / know why I don't do a bunch of stuff in the evenings during these trainings -- just too tired. Slept in a bit this morning, which is not bad; just throws my inner schedule off a bit.
Yesterday we talked less, practiced more. Standing poses and balances, handstands, pidgeon prep, backbends (I popped up for two!), drop backs, worked with a partner on full pidgeon, etc. It was a fun morning topped off by an improvisational dance performed by a student from Oakland. When she was done, everyone danced for a few minutes -- basically all squashed in the middle of the room, but dancing nevertheless. Then, a short meditation and it was break time.
A beautiful day in San Francisco, we walked to Whole Foods (of course!) and ate our lunches sitting outside. Is it really February? I am learning, tho, that San Francisco's weather can change quickly and when we left the venue last night it was lightly raining. Still dark this morning, but the noise from outside sounds like 'still raining'.
The afternoon began with a brief discussion and we moved quickly into poses to open the hamstrings and hips. Long holds - by that, I mean, we stayed in each pose for a LONG time.
This morning will be the final session of the training, so it is a short day -- 9 am to 1 pm. Then the venue changes and the weekend workshop begins tomorrow morning. I'd better stay focused on this morning.
Hope you have a nice Friday,
