Tuesday/Thursday yoga
Lucia yoga today was surprisingly good. We started out standing, which Lucia never does, and we did a whole slew of sun salutations. Really got things warmed up. I did a good headstand, too. My big breakthrough was cobbler pose, though--I touched my forehead to my big toe! I don't think I've ever ever done that before. My hips are doing so awesomely lately.
I had a good practice on Tuesday evening, too, a good 50 minutes or so (music: Anoushka Shankar, which was inoffensive but for the most part not fast enough). Also did a headstand. I'm getting better and better at it.
To practice more at home: dolphin, kneeling half moon. I also need to do more sun salutation repetitions, and need to hold poses longer to build stamina. I'm getting pretty strong now--a year ago I could never have hovered in low plank--but I don't really have much stamina, and when I'm in class (ie, not running my own practice) I get wobbly pretty quickly and can't hold poses for long enough.
