New Tuesday class
As a show of support I went to Sue's studio today - I'm really trying to get up to speed with yoga again and will try to get back to my three to four practices a week. Sol from my teacher training posse was teaching, and I'm just constantly amazed by the possibilities vinyasa yoga offers - since we've all done the same training you'd imagine that our styles would be similar, but they are nothing alike. Of course Sol takes a lot from her dancing and hatha background, whereas my yoga roots are firmly in ashtanga - for example she likes to start the class with very gentle spinal warm-ups, whereas for me there's only one right way to start a class and that's five Surya Namaskar As and 5 Bs. Mind you, I had promised myself to keep and open mind for her new ideas, and I quite enjoyed her teaching.
Sue's studio is really small, but as long as it doesn't get too crowded I quite like it. I feel slightly uncomfortable in the neighborhood (Broadway Skytrain station, Commercial and Broadway) as it's a bit rough - but so far nothing threatening has actually happened so it's not too bad. I have a ten class card for the studio so I think I'll make this my Tuesday class for now.

I'm just such a missy, I'm used to clean and wonderful West End.
