Oh yeah, I've heard their culinary arts program is good. I keep meaning to check out the cafe.

Jazz club. . .nice.

I have another date with pain at 10pm!

Unfortunately, it's not the good kinda pain.

JustErin said:

excellent ...

you never know, next time, it might be the good kind of pain...

I did it again last night.

It was slightly easer and that made me very happy.

I sweat like a mofo while doing it, though.

I wonder if yoga would help my tonsils??

JustErin said:

that totally sounds pornographic

jerseykrs said:

Maybe if I make it pornographic I'll get a better response to this thread.

i think i had a dream about yoga last night because of this thread if that helps


jers, what a good friend

emm said:

It helps a little.

Now tell me what you were wearing in your dream. Tights? Shorts?

JustErin said:

sorry i have no recollection
my man's back is fucked (irl)
and physical therapy has started him off
doing the thing where you keep your hips on
the ground but lift your upper body up

so we both went to yoga

but i know it would kick my ass too.
if i would be wearing anything it would be stretchy pants
to accomodate my ever widening ass no shorts. not in this lifetime.

emm said:

i have been dreaming about erin doing yoga, is that kind of the same thing...

JustErin said:

yes u was wearing tight shorts and a tight top.

tight is good

JustErin said:

Wow...it sounds like it. Are you in a class or are you doing a tape or dvd? Things will get easier as you continue to do them. I just started doing the Turbo Jam DVDs and they are kicking my ass. I can only do about 20 min before I want to pass out.

Yeah...yoga and crack.

Is that an oxymoron?

My fav one that I miss the most- I used to do every morning when I woke after stretching: Sun Salutation

Yes, I am really out of shape in the sense that I carry a lot of tension in my neck and shoulders and my flexibility has gone to shit.

I'm doing it at home since I don't have the option of going to a class.

He is an underrated ass kicker indeed.

JustErin said:

It sounds like you are doing a very physically intense form of yoga. There are forms that require less, which you could start with. You said you are doing it alone? Have you read up on it in depth about all the possible effects it can have on your body and mind?

Tremolina said:

Oui.

JustErin said:

I do too...I actually went to physical therapy for it for a while because it's related to migraines.
All that stretching can be really painful when your muscles are so tense! Once your muscles loosen up you're going to feel a lot better.

Ok- no more excuses for me... I did start back walking now back to my yoga. Six weeks til vacation...no more excuses for me- and the weather is beautiful.

Thanks this thread was the kick in the that I needed..

I'm going out tonight so I had not planned on doing it tonight...but I decided I better and just finished doing it now.

I rock.

JustErin said:

You do Rock !!!

I loved LOVED yoga when I took a class a few years ago I'd like to continue now, gotta find something local. I didn't notice much change in terms of weight loss but I did FEEL a lot better...

I recently purchased a yogo tape. Denise Austin. It drove me crazy. I could not do have of the exercises!
