ANN & ABBS GETTIN' ABS: DAY 11

Yoga is so wonderful; yoga is so difficult. Two sides of the same coin. 

Today, we did yoga with Jacqueline, which was very different (I think) from yoga with Courtney. It moved at a faster pace thank the Monday class, with quicker sequences and transitions. I found the Monday yoga to be calmer, while Lauren was funny and brought a more energetic aura to the table. Today dealt more with stretching...something I realized I can't do very well. Jacqueline is very accommodating, as I've found most teachers here are, and allows for modified stretches if, say, you can't touch your toes without bending your knees. Cough cough. 

Something fun we learned today was that the J is the only place Jacqueline teaches that has all the equipment on hand; we have modifying blocks, mats, and bands to help stretch out your legs.

As we learned in class today, "Yoga is all about breathing. If it's not breathing, it's just torture."

Well, it wasn't torture, that's for sure. Check it out!
