I never knew that Yoga could kick my a$$, but it did today. I tried out a Groupon for four yoga sessions for $20. I thought it was a pretty good deal and that way I could try to keep in shape while I pigged out in Singapore. I didn't realize how out of shape I was in until the instructor asked us to touch our toes. I've done it hundreds of times when I was doing cheerleading and when I actually working out at the gym, but this time I got to my ankles and stopped dead. The pain! And this was just the first set of instructions! I realized how I know nothing about yoga as the instructor called out various poses and I was the dumb one that kept saying "whaaaaaat?" One pose called for us to stand on our heads. All the girls were suddenly on their heads, effortlessly, as if they were saying "Yea, I've been waiting all day to do this position!" I just flopped around like I was Jason Segel on "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". Thank goodness there were only three other girls in the class or else I would have felt a whole lot worse being embarrassed by a full class.
But the flip side is that I only had one class. I have three more to attempt... Save me...
