Yoga has made a positive difference in my aging body. My stiffness, aches and pains are minimized as I stretch and pose making my body do things I didn’t expect to do in my seventies. Going to BodhiYoga (www.gobodhiyoga.com) two or three times a week keeps my body from complaining. I got so motivated a year ago that I started taking the teacher’s training course. I am working on my certification. I love helping others enjoy yoga—‘yoking body, mind and spirit.’ Doesn’t that sound lovely?
You may think you can’t do yoga. If so, it is only because you haven’t tried. I make it easy to give it a try. I hold classes in my basement for the brave at heart and willing in body. I often call my classes, As Best You Can Yoga. I will say, “Bend over your front leg and touch your nose to your knee—-as best you can.” There is no perfection and no pressure in my basement studio. We laugh a lot and everyone wants to come back. I have taught classes of children, young adults, adults, Baby Boomers, and Seniors. Everyone has a great time. Everyone is surprised at what their body will do when given the right instruction. Let me know if you want to join us.
