    Thursday's practice made me realise I don't hate the plank, I hate the side plank and the plank really is grand! I can feel I'm getting better overall though.

    Disadvantages to attending a city centre studio: police car with sirens on racing past during savasana! :eek:

    Amazing practice tonight. I'm positioning myself better but need more guidance so need to work on that.

    I did all my balance poses without falling over once. That has actually never happened before, I have terrible balance.

    *happy face*

    balance poses are still by far my worst! my good days I lose my balance only a couple of times,my bad days I lose my balance constantly. and I don't even do the full balance poses, I do the easy version!

    But anyway, my last few classes in my forward bends I've been able to touch my knees with my nose with just a little pressure from my instructor! considering I couldn't even reach my toes with my fingertips when I started yoga, I'm pretty delighted with that. Now to be able to grab my wrists past my feet in a forward bend...challenge accepted!

    Went to a workshop about a week ago on a Saturday afternoon, then attended a different yoga class to my usual one on Wednesday evening. Realised that my brain has taken the standard Ashtanga sequencing as The Law, and that in classes with a different structure it kinda goes a bit WTF for a while!

    I held half moon for 5 breaths last night on both sides. I really felt a difference with my balance last night.

    Bikram yesterday was 80% male, something I have never seen before.

    Guys are much noisier than girls.

    Started back at Pilates class this week after about a 10 month break, couldn't find class to suit schedule. Was good to get back to it. Felt brilliant from it last time and core was very strong. Intend to practice twice a week when not in class. Looking forward to next week.:)
