Before I started practicing yoga, I thought it was just a bunch of holding random poses and “advanced stretching”, but since I have begun to practice regularly I have learned to enjoy and respect it. At first I assumed this would be something that could be an active recovery day but it’s been so much more. It’s done wonders for my flexibility and posture and the practice really is a workout, I struggle to hold poses and balance much more than I expected. I really like that Alsace makes it seem simple and yet still challenging, so going from a beginner I thought I could still participate in the class and now as I become more familiar with the practice I still feel challenged every session. Alsace’s passion for her practice really drives me and others to show up and show out every time we’re there and I hope to continue coming for a long time.
