Moon Day

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

Oh, it’s a moon day alright.  I was going to practice in spite of that fact because I just haven’t gotten too many practices in as of late.  I was going to keep it reserved, I know how the full moon can make us over-zealous, but I still wanted to practice.  So I leave the house at 6:20 with the dog (she occasionally comes to work with me), by the time I make it in to the studio it’s 6:40 and low and behold the custodian is mopping the floor and she’s less than halfway through.  Ok, I’ll just set my stuff down and… Shit!  I then realize I forgot my pants… Practicing without pants would be bad, plus I’m supposed to teach my intro yoga class at 8, which would be worse without pants (I did have on pants, but they were blue jeans, not exactly conducive to a good practice.)  So I go home and get my britches and get back a little after 7.  By the time I get changed it’s 7:15 so I just go through the Sun Salutations and a few stretches before the first student showed up at quarter of.  At 5 to 8 a maintenance guy comes in to fix a broken mirror in the dance studio so we didn’t actually get the class started until 8:10.  At 9:00 as we were nearing the finishing postures a group of 20 8th graders come in to the building (but not the studio) to rehearse their production of As You Like It.  First, I was told they wouldn’t be in until 10 and second, I was told it would be 10 Tomorrow.   So I rush them through a few finishing postures and get them into savasana so I can go deal with the incoming group; which turned out fine but was pretty much a cluster fuck due to ball dropping and miscommunication.  So, yeah, today’s a moon day.

Yeah, I teach a basic level Ashtanga/Vinyasa class. I teach how I was taught, which is not in the mysore style...
