Yoga; Thursday, Third Period [05/12].
Everyone in the class should have been told that, weather permitting, they'd be meeting at the beach each week (and the community center otherwise), so if they weren't there when class begun....oh, well. Rosa was definitely thinking she'd be 100% fine if everyone just didn't show up or wound up on the wrong beach, and she'd just spend the period going through her own forms without anyone bothering her, and, actually, could they just do that instead?
But, no, people didpresumably show up, so Rosa sighed and supposed she did still have to, ugh, teach.
"Alright," she said, "I'm assuming you're all here for yoga. This is meant to be kind of a basics class for people of all abilities and experience levels, so if you're already pretty familiar with yoga, you should already know that even the simple stuff can still be helpful and beneficial, and if you're new, nothing should be so challenging that you can't wing at least a simplified version of the movements.
"So....what is yoga? I could go into some long, detailed lecture like some people," s'up, Blackstone?, "but I'm not going to. If you're really interested in the history and all that crap, there's a library and the internet. We're mostly going to be focusing on how yoga can be used to both relax and calm a person," suggesting that, yes, this was Rosa relaxed and calm from yoga; imagine how she'd be without it, "as well as stretch and tone and strengthen your body. It's a whole...wellness of mind and body equilibrium hippy-dippy bullshit, but, it works, so...."
She shrugged, like it couldn't be helped that even granola-crunching, chakra-enlightening hippies could still be right about some things.
"Anyway," she said. "We're going to just get started simply today by going over some of the basic forms you'll likely be using a lot in this class. Most classes will be just me teaching you a technique or sequence, and then spending the rest of the period practicing it and not talking and just focusing on what you're doing, which means it's one of the most perfect class concepts ever created. So, follow me through the twelve basic forms we'll go over today, and then we'll see how you are on your form or if you have any questions, and then you'll just work on them. That's it.
"It's yoga. It doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, I feel like that defeats the whole point."
But, no, people did
