Tadpole

It was cold in Seattle last night. I fell asleep with the window open and in the haze of sleepiness, didn't realize until 4am that that is why I was so bloody cold (and therefore awake) all night. Once warm, the alarm clock went off... shower, drive over to AYS. I love how hot the room is here. Practice was moving along... I got to watch Carl and his sandbags today. I said something to him about them... I'm assuming he knew it was me :)

My Bhekasana adjustment was wierd today. David moved my knees really close together... so close that I couldn't get my feet down. During the adjustment, instead of really working my back, he concentrated on keeping my knees together and pushing my elbows in and down... this did nothing for my back which is my passion for Bhekasana.

I did Kapotasana on my own. I have been doing it this wierd way where I move my shoulder blade out and around as I'm coming down, keeping one hand on my thighs. The problem with this (aside from it being completely incorrect method) is that I somehow pulled my shoulder way too far around and tweaked my shoulder. Really tweaked it. Every drop back hurt (including the one where I tried to stand up and pushing into the shoulder and fell... I haven't fallen standing up in a long time). So I finished up... did a quick closing.. and have been nursing my shoulder ever since. I hope it isn't screwed up royally.

Jai Hanuman!

Of course I recognized you! The studio is too stolid a place for chit chat or introductions though. It seems that way to me anyway. Next time, I'll make sure to say hello no matter what pose you're in.
