Well, if you can have a bad morning - yesterday would qualify. After making my apologies, I taught the Gentle Yoga class, and - thankfully - they are such a nice group, I forgot my worries for 90 minutes.
Today is another day, and I am moving forward. (For more reading on miscommunication, read Christina's blog entry -- lots of good nuggets in there.)
My friends, Tracy and John, are in town from St. George and coming to class this morning. Tracy is also an Anusara-Inspired instructor. What will that mean? Some pressure; since I often am more nervous when my peers attend my classes. Lately, tho, the nervous jitters disappear once the chant begins. I do plan to film this morning. And, a special treat -- John will play his guitar and chant during our savasana.
Class is planned - theme, alignment principle, apex pose, things to watch for, sequence.
Then, who knows. It's a nice day, maybe a bike ride.
Have a good Saturday,
About Me
- Leslie Salmon
- Fallbrook, California
- I have been teaching yoga since 2003 (and began my yoga practice in 1998 at the age of 48). I have maintained E-RYT 500 status with Yoga Alliance since 2007, and in 2013 received my Certification through the Anusara School of Hatha Yoga. In classes, I love to to hear people remark - "I didn't know I could do that!" or "Why do I work so hard, yet feel so good?". When not teaching or practicing yoga, time spent with husband, Grand-Dudes and family, and friends is time well spent. Learning, whether it be from a philosophy scholar, an asana teacher or from my students, is a life-long process -- all have lessons to offer me. I am listening - with space in my heart and mind - to all the voices around me. Thank you for reading.
