Changing our Sunday up a bit..
A normal Sunday for Mr. vB and I includes me waking up first, starting the coffee maker, and feeding the kiddo’s. (Boots, Bailey and Milo) Once my coffee is ready I sit on the couch and catch up on my favorite blogs until Mr. vB wakes up. {which could be anywhere from 9:30 to 11 o’clock.. sometimes I have to make a little extra noise downstairs to get him moving! Luv You Hon!}
BUT this Sunday morning we shook things up abit! Mr. vB and I have been trying to change up our workout routine and we have always said we wanted to try a Yoga class. Well I mentioned this to my friend/neighbor, Karen, who is a Yogi and teaches over at Yoga Source in Carytown. She suggested that we come try out her Sunday morning class. I mentioned this to Mr. vB and surprisingly he was down for it, even though it meant waking up early on a Sunday! {yes- Sunday at 9am is still early to my husband!}
So off to Yoga Source Mr.vB and I went this morning. And an hour and a half later we emerged from the studio feeling awesome. The class we took was called Slow Flow Vinyasa and it kicked our butts! It was definitely a bit of a challenge since neither me nor Mr. vB had any clue of the poses that Karen was talking about, but she helped us to get each just right!
**Side-note- I have always been the type of exerciser that thought you had to SWEAT BUCKETS to get a true workout, but boy was I wrong. Mr. vB and I used muscles this morning that we didn’t even know existed. At one point I even looked over at Mr. vB and he WAS sweating buckets! We are sure to be so sore in the morning!**
I was so impressed by Karen’s teachings that when I was suppose to be clearing my mind of all thoughts, all I could think about was how I was going to write this post!! For anyone looking for a great Yoga class/instructor YOU HAVE GOT to try out Karen’s class. She teaches multiple classes during the week over at Yoga Source, and she also does private sessions. Karen even has a once a month Yoga session at a cool loft downtown called “Last Friday’s”. Check out her website for the full scoop! www.yogawabisabi.com.
