Okay, here it is..my very first post. I have been very slow at getting this started but to tell the truth I got a little freaked out at having my thoughts and feelings posted for everyone to see. After I created this, I realized that I am an intensely private person and am not comfortable with putting it all out there, so I have decided to keep this blog related to my journey of becoming a Certified Yoga Dance Teacher. I am not so much trying to get people to read my blog as I am just wanting a place to catalogue my journey for myself.
I attended an Introduction to Yoga 4 week course March 2010 and totally fell in love. When the 4 weeks were up, I could not find a yoga class in my area that would fit in to my schedule so I bought a couple of Rodney Yee Beginner tapes and started on my own. It is like a hunger, I just want to learn more, more, more. I have practiced every day for over a year now and there have been very few mornings that I get up and not do Rodney's AM yoga. It is a great way to start the day and now it is a habit and I miss it terribly if there is some reason I can not practice it. I have even typed up and laminated a little card with the poses on it that I can take with me when I am travelling. I call it my Yoga to Go card. I love the way I feel when I do yoga and I am sure it will be a part of my life forever. I have been semi athletic all my life...High School basketball, softball, aerobics...what ever the exercise fad of the year was. Yea, I had the Jane Fonda LP's, the Suzanne Somers Thighmaster, etc...man, we have come a long way. None of these things have ever made me feel like Yoga does..that's right I have to capitalize it, it means that much to me.
Well, that's start. My next post will take me through why I crave Yoga Dance, why I need to do this.
