This is the first lesson I attended Yoga class for this year, it's pretty tough in a relaxing way. Most of the time the instructor will teach us the right way to breath, which will improve blood circulation and prevent some of the diseases. After all the breathing lessons, the instructor will demostrate some of the yoga movement and we have to do it after/with him.
THIS, is where I find it VERY TOUGH. So the first movement we did is stretch both arms up and squat. Sounds pretty easy huh? It WAS easy until the instructor come next to you and tell you to SQUAT MORE, as in the angle between your calf and thigh is not much more than 90 degree. To make things worse, he'll make it LESS than 90 degree. Painful experience so I won't write exactly HOW he did it. We're taught to forget about painful experience since young. Haha.
Never mind. It's so painful that I decided not write about the other 2 movements that we did. So when we're doing the squat thing, the instructor will count to 10. 3 sets in total, where each of the set, the time increases by 10 counts. So when he counted from 1 to 10, I'll follow counting in my mind. So here it goes. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7....." Here's the problem. 8 comes after 7. But when I'm at 7, I tend to go back to 6. So I'm counting "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6......" when the instructor goes to 8, I was like
Hmmm....I wonder....Who's the one who can't count from 1 to 10 after 3-4 months rest after SPM....><
