Try Iyengar yoga and stick to it for a few months. It is likely you will never look back!

This article and it’s predecessor (“I’m completely Humiliated by Yoga”) has made my day! Actually, you’re entire blog has made my day and I am hooked! I especially loved your “How to be THE LUCKIEST GUY ON THE PLANET” post. I am just beginning on my Yoga journey and OH.MY.GOD. it is CRAZY just how out of shape I am. I had a one-on-one private Yoga session in my own home and I couldn’t have been more embarrassed by my lack of flexibility and ability to follow directions. Breathing and posing at the same time? Let’s just say I do not multitask very well. Thanks for the great discovery! Looking forward to reading more of your musings!

I don’t think you should beat yourself up over this. Yoga is non-competitive and you should never compare yourself to others. Have you thought of trying another style of yoga?

Oh poor sweetie. I feel your pain.
Really you ought to check out the power yoga videos by Bryan Kest (especiallly “sweat” volume 2) and practice at home. Bryan lectures a lot about not beating yourself up or comparing yourself to anyone – hard to do, I know but now when I practice I just hear Bryan’s words, “if you’re feeling something, you’re doing it perfectly.”

Yes, all good workouts should end with donuts.

I’m with you James, wondering half the time what the hell I’m doing in a class. Live in Singapore and haven’t met any Ashtanga legends yet. Well, am meeting David Swenson when he comes next month (which I promise I will blog about). And I LOVE that picture of Christy – nothing revealing but she looks so good!
