Man, not having it so crazy hot makes it a lot easier to really work the poses. Went to the Los Gatos studio today with Tracy and can truthfully say I did each pose the best I have ever done them.Again, the fact that I wasnt more focused on not having heat stroke than the execution of the positions helped a great deal.
But a Pr is a pr, anyway you cut it..
The balancing series was so strong and I came within 5 seconds of making the full minute on standing bow on my left leg.This makes me very happy.I can remember not so long ago at all that I couldnt not stand on my left leg by itself for 3 seconds much less 60 while in some funky arabesque like flexibility trick!
I even nailed balancing stick for the full count on both sets. Major inprovement. But the biggest change was in the second head to knee pose( dont know the name) where the lefts are split fore and aft with the knees locked out. right leg in front has been fine and I use it to work my left knee lockout but whenever I put my left leg in front I could barely stand up much less lean over and put my full weight on the leg!
But today I found my hip and got so much further than last week it was almost a different pose.
Crazy.
Another class tomorrow at 4:30 so we'll see what back to backs look like again.

"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Great progress Rif!
Bikram himself is in my area teaching a workshop. Originaly I was going to Flint MI for Ken Blackburns meet but couldn't due to family obligations. So I may attend the workshop. Might be (sort of) fun!
