Week 2

This week I went to a 5:30 am class at Grow Yoga yesterday.  I wanted to get an early start that day. So I have finally started to get the general flow of each class. Each class starts with pretty easy poses and they gradually increase in difficulty.  The final few minutes the heat and the lights gets turned off and the fans get put on.

Yoga is definitely framed as more than just an exercise.  The whole aspect of mindfulness on the senses makes it different than many other exercises.  For me I'm still trying to make sense of yoga but it almost feels like a dance class where everyone is dancing by themselves. What I mean is that, like dance, yoga allows people to express themselves through movement. It really is not that much different.  Unlike dancing to music you just do poses to the sound of the instructors voice.  In this way it is more introspective than dancing with someone else.
