I've been meaning to do it for awhile, but today I finally headed to the free yoga class that LuLuLemon stress offer on Saturday. I have a race tomorrow, so I won't be able to make my usual Sunday yoga class.
I had never been to the LuLuLemon store here in C-land. Its actually called a studio, they haven't committed to having a full blown store here. Not sure there is enough of a market. However they have this studio shoved in a luxury apt building. Aside from the residents, who are mostly old, who shops there? Not the best marketing plan, but whatever, FREE YOGA!
They have different teachers from the area each week, which is a great idea. I think with yoga it's very important to go to classes with different teachers, you get so much more out of seeing different styles. Today's teacher, who teaches at 1-2-1 fitness as well, was really good. The class was jammed pack. I mean ridiculously tight, I felt like a sardine. I am not used to having someone right on top of me when doing yoga. It's not so great. You can't get into a lot of poses well. IT's even hard to reverse swan dive. And let me just say, without picking on anyone in particular, that before you go to a packed free yoga class, wash your feet and brush your teeth. I was so distracted by bad smells that I couldn't really get into my breathing. Yuck. There was a really bad coffee breath near me. Ugh. I am not sure I will go again. Well, scratch that, I will go again if I can't make my normal Sunday lass b/c I want o make sure I get a yoga class in weekly. How about you my fellow yogis, where do you go to yoga? At a gym, a yoga studio?
