Good Yoga

Didn't get out to cycling class yesterday, a combination of lingering illness and bad traffic that would've made me both late and lethargic for class. Hopefully that's the last day I have to miss for the cold, because I was feeling much better today. Took Bug to karate and then went to bodyflow yoga at the gym. There was hardly anybody there because the temperature has dropped to a frigid fifty degrees, so it was just me and two others most of the time. (I did not even wear a coat to classs.)

Yoga was really good tonight, surprisingly good! I exercise because I want the results, not usually because I enjoy the classes, but it actually felt great to be moving my body again, stretching and bending and twisting. I was right there with the teacher the entire time, not exactly perfect on all the poses, not always going deep into the poses, but still doing the work and feeling good. I did my planks with no knees, and got my foot all the way off the mat for tree pose. Small steps, yeah, but it still felt good. It makes me feel like I could actually get pretty good at yoga.
