Yoga Class #2 with Hubby

So Justin and I decided to try the Monday night yoga class since it was taught by a man. Justin found this article by Jill Lawson that talks about why yoga may be tough for men. Basically they have too much strength and not enough flexibility. Jill Lawson: Why is Yoga Hard for Some Men.

With that in mind, Justin thought that a class taught by another man would give poses that were better suited for men. Well apparently Lou, the guy who teaches on Monday's and Wednesday's, was out of town. So we got the girl who teaches Restorative Yoga on Sundays. The class seemed super easy, except when she kept us in downward dog too long. I had to drop to my knees a few times because I couldn't hold myself up any longer. (Just an FYI, my arms are still really weak.) But still, this class didn't shake either of us up too much.

Well I'm glad I decided to wait until today to post because, I AM SORE! The class seemed so easy at the time, but now I am sore from head to toe. Justin said he was as well. I guess yoga can be sneaky like that.
