Tomorrow is my last Tuesday class. 😢
I have loved teaching a power flow that is the same sequence each week. I really stepped out of my comfort zone teaching this style of class. In the past, I taught vinyasa - creative flow- or restorative, where each class is different. It was challenging for me to remember the sequence and not want to change or add anything (which as you know, if you attended, I sometimes still did🤭). I’m not sure if I’ll teach that same style class ever again, who knows?! This class grew so much over the past 2 years…it’s also hard to believe it’s been that long. We sweated our booties off, laughed, worked hard, connected to our breath and our bodies. We deepened the asana, learning binds and arm balances. I loved witnessing the moment those fingers interlace into the full bind or finding that “ah ha” moment when the cue lands and you nail the arm balance you’ve been working on for weeks and weeks. Or even better when you listened to your body and did exactly what it needed in that moment rather than following ego.
I have had to do this a few times in my yoga teaching career due to life changes, walk away from a class that felt like home to me. It is never easy. But this one feels a little different, I created every ounce of this class. The class style, description, sequence, the breath, the music, the flow… it’s incredibly hard to walk away from something you created. The changes in my life are totally worth walking away from, but it’s still hard, sad, and bittersweet.
I will find another time and day to add a yoga class to Rainbow’s schedule, when it feels right. Teaching yoga is apart of me, I wouldn’t feel whole if I didn’t instruct.
I want to thank you all for supporting me, I wouldn’t be able to do what I do if it weren’t for you showing up each class. Planning your week, dinner, kids schedules, and work so you can make it to 6pm hot power rainbow flow on Tuesdays. Let’s be honest, if you all didn’t continue to show up each week, this class wouldn’t have even existed. So from every cell in my body, thank you, thank you, thank you. So so so much gratitude and love to you all.
🙏🏼💜
