Going to a sesion for the first time today!

i've long wanted to try yoga/Bikram and have decided today I'm just going to go for it. I've lost a bit of weight lately and have become more active and health conscious , so I think this will be a good time to explore it. Wish me Luck!

      Well it started pretty well then it seemed so difficult that I almost wanted to give up and leave ,but that soon passed and I persevered. I was lucky enough to have a practioner who works there also take the class who quietly advised me when i got into difficulty.The shower after was sooo magnificent and I got two compliments: one from the practioner who helped me,she said I did so great for a first class and another beginner, who's been 5 times said I did really well and managed to try most of it, that she had ended up on the floor for most of her 1st session.Later on, i was a bit sore, but I felt great!

      So I went again the next evening and although certain postures are still difficult for me, I never felt like giving up.I also got another nice surprise when the instructor of the last class saw me coming in, she too said I did great for a 1st class.

      Thank you for asking!
