21 Vinyasas
This morning I started teaching a new class at Crunch called '21 Vinyasas'.
...well, I don't know if "teaching" is the right word for it since I'm actually practicing with the class. So I'll say I'm leading the class through 21 vinyasas. That sounds more like it.
...well, now that I think about it, that number '21' and the word 'vinyasas' are used very loosely as well. After doing the math, I figure we did a handful more than '21' vinyasas (if you count the examples), and it's technically not a vinyasa that we're counting anyway. It's the number of Sun Salutations, which include a warrior pose (or 2) with a vinyasa (plank, chaturanga and updog) in between each side.
All in all, it was a bit challenging for me considering the time of day, and having to guide everyone through the series, and those 21-25 or so "vinyasas". But feeling the way I feel now, all open and loose at quarter to 2 in the afternoon, it was all worth while. I'm looking forward to doing it again next week.
You should come and join us if you're up and around, and you like the burning sensation in your shoulders as you scrape the bottom of the barrel for any remnants of your will to press on.
Nah, it ain't that bad...

Ever since I took your class, I now do vinyasas at least once a day if I can. I do 20! 5 to the east, 5 to the south, 5 to the west and 5 to the west. Don't ask me why. but it just feels rigt. : )
It was a great start to a great class! I usually have "Blue Monday Syndrome" and this Monday WAS an exception to that rule. Thanks, Light!
