vegan 30 Days of Yoga: Day 4
As I have an interview this afternoon with lululemon I chose to go to a Power class early this morning. Leo was the teacher and throughout meditation and Ohm chanting at the beginning and end of class he played a wonderful tune on a piano accordion. The first time I had ever experienced this and it was so relaxing and grounding to listen to in Savasana. Power flow is always very core focused which is what I really need after so much time off my regular practice. It was a tough class but very strength building and I really enjoyed it. I love to be challenged in my practice and this only happens for me when I actually go to classes as opposed to practicing myself and only focusing on the Asanas that I really like doing. Yoga is a never ending learning journey and I have to learn to love the things I don’t love so much in practice. I am so grateful to be back into my consistent daily practice. After class I connected with Leo and we chatted about the possibilities of becoming a teacher in Vancouver. He actually has started up a support group for new Yoga teachers who meet once each week and get to know each other. The group is focused on making each new teacher realize that we aren’t alone in this and actually there are others out there who might be feeling the same. Maybe a little daunted and intimidated by the thought of teaching in front of a large group of people which is really common and just to have people there for you is always helpful and confidence boosting. I’m looking forward to connecting with the group and learning what everyone is about. My short term goal is to find at least part-time work teaching yoga once or twice per week in a studio and then my long term goal is to be running vegan Yoga retreats on a beautiful tropical island. It will all come with time, baby steps for now :) Alana xx
