Day 41: Dropping Likes Flies
Today was 530 at the old studio with Roberta. It was packed. 50 students shoved into the "small room". She taught the class before so it was already hot and humid. I broke out in a sweat just laying my mat down. If Reggi would've been there today we would've given each other the "it's gonna be ugly" look. It was so brutal that four people left right after standing series and another two during the spine series. Lots of downed yogi's all over the room at different times in the class. In spite of all of this I had a solid class and pretty much rocked it out up until camel. Once I hit second set of camel I suddenly felt sapped. I pushed through the rest of class and lay on my soggy towel for savasana feeling grateful that I made it.

Isn't it so satisfying afterwards when you've got a class like that. Sure it's a pain when it happens, but after oh my what a encouraging feeling to know you persevered.

Mei~ um, I was looking for characters on me keyboard to respond to it....I think it says "you rock sista!" LOL :)
Go Roberta!
ReplyDeleteGreg~ we got "robrutalized", some were "robludgeoned" LOL!
ReplyDeleteI saw the two women who came out after spine series. I was getting dressed and in walk two red, wet women. I couldn't figure out where they came from for a minute. They looked rough and one of them was pissed and muttering sarcastically about staying in the room. Robludgeoned indeed. And they clearly felt Robitchslapped.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making it to the end and not even being bitter.
Dorothy~ Robitchslapped. Awesome! I can't wait to tell Mark about that one (he came up with the others).
ReplyDeleteYou stayed in, way to go! Look at you now, you are so strong!
ReplyDeleteVery nice class Michelle. It's classes like that when you feel like you can take on the world!
