Taken today on purpose to see if I could do it better than last week. Last weeks' were unstaged. I was Blissfully unaware - teaching Yoga. My PASSION. Today I asked one of my Yoginis to please take 2 photos. Warrior 1 and Warrior 2. Same clothes as last week (washed between classes of course๐๐).
One week later. I am disappointed in myself, as I expext better of the Yogis and Yoginis I teach! I am going to ask Stu, one of my favourite Teachers, to help me get better. Once he has accepted my Friend Request, I will share him. He taught me how to teach Springbok Sportsmen and Sportswomen to to do Yoga to perfect their Sport. He, like some of my teachers, have the big imaginary stick to never hurt me but tell me to be better. Do more.
I was never concerned about posting on Facebook.... neither was he. Seems us "Oldies" with the knowledge and experience need to use Facebook. I shudder!๐๐
NO!!! Yoga is not a Religion. I had the priviledge of discussing Yoga with the Dalai Lama. It is just a Discipline. A Discipline like brushing your teeth. I hope you all brush and floss! An Oral Hygienist is a good addition to the regimine. It is a Discipline like breast-feeding your Baby. It us a Discipline like going to School, University the Office Job you dislike, the Bond you have to pay Monthly.
Where Yoga differs from many other Disciplines...I will spare you the detail...is Yoga expands you. Don't stress...not your waist - your Aura, your Thoughts, Your Flexibity, Your Strength, Your Stamina. It Shapes and Tones your Core, your Back, your Arms, your Legs, your Mind, your Breath, Your Wisdom. I can carry on all night! Scientific fact - you are 1cm taller after a Yoga Practice. Yes, you have to come back again because Gravity and Life take it's toll between Practices. Maybe I should measure my height and stop telling Discovery Vitality how tall I am? After all the years of Yoga and days of doing nothing but Yoga , maybe I have landed up being taller???
Going to a Yoga class is called a Practice. Teaching a Yoga class is called a Practice. We are All always learning More..
Clearly, I need more Yoga Discipline as my postures are not 100%. But I DO know how to teach the postures....๐
