As someone who has never gone to a yoga class, the prospect of doing yoga at Rose was a little daunting. I don’t consider myself flexible at all, and memories of trying to do yoga through the Wii Fit when I was around ten years old kept flashing back. Although I’ve always known that yoga is a good way to get exercise into my week, it has never appealed to me enough to actually attempt a class. So I decided that I was going to the yoga event to check it out and get any doubts that I had out of my head.

Granted, my lack of flexibility did come into play in the session, but it wasn’t the big deal that I had made it out to be in my head. I might have not been able to do some of the poses as well as others, but I got there eventually. It was surprisingly relaxing to go through the motions, and I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would.

I came out of the class feeling refreshed and actually ready to start my day. I think it would be nice to try yoga out another time, and maybe even incorporate it into my weekly routine. I came out of this event having much more positive feelings about yoga, and I hope to feel the same way with even more of the future events.
