Yoga rocks!

So, this past Tuesday I embarked my 1st Yoga adventure with Kir, Mari, & Yvette.


We went to: Yoga Madre
300 East Foothill Blvd Arcadia CA 91006
(626)303-1004

Our 1st class was with Ellen Mathews. She was very welcoming and patient. At the
beginning of the class I felt immediately overwhelmed...we held each pose for what felt like an eternity. Not to mention there were a couple of poses that were not CHUNK-MONKEY friendly. But, Ellen was able to put me at ease by suggesting alternate or less strenuous poses. She also gave not so subtle tips like "tuck your tummy" lol....tuck my tummy? Where do you suppose I tuck this lovely tummy? Hehehe

I was glad that I took this class with the girls. We had a blast that evening and even the following couple of days talking about our various stories in our Yoga class. I'm still not convinced that Yoga is for the CHUBBIES, but I sure am impressed about the experience. I loved how my body felt as it streched and how calming it was. This will definitely be my Tuesday evening hangout!



Kir- I am now convinced you are a human pretzel.
Mari- Don't worry we'll both practice on how to get our legs up on the wall!
Yvette- I think we both know they DON'T sanitize those mats (ewww!)
