Dark and cold are the best words to describe tonight. I'm grateful that I did warm up with yoga with Amanda tonight. One good thing I love about my substiute yoga instructor is that we finish class ten minutes early. But our routine is always the same and hard to do. Our class was pretty much half-full. I'm grateful Amanda offered me a ride tonight, when I didn't bother asking her for one. Yeah! It's that time of season again with colder temperatures, rain and yes snow, when my winter break would be slowly approaching wthin the next month. I'll be starting my yoga home practice this weekend and start my Pilates home practice next Tuesday. Here's what we did tonight in yoga class, which is pretty much nothing new: 2 Corpse Poses (beginning and end) 10 Down Dogs and 12 1-legged Down Dogs (6x/side) 8 Cobras or Up Dog Poses 6 Crane Poses and 4 Child's Poses 6 Warrior Two and Reverse Warrior Poses 2 Airplane Poses and 2 Double Pigeon Poses (1x/side) 2 Kneeling Dancer Poses (1x/side) and 8 Top Push-Up Poses 4 Sets of Cat-Cow Poses and 2 Half Moon Poses (1x/side) 2 Crescent Moon Poses and 6 Crescent Lunges (3x/side) 2 Boat and Low Boat Poses 1 Leg Up the Wall Pose and 1 Happy Baby Pose I believe that's about it for tonight. For @arthurchappell, here's a photo of the lunge pose as promised for you.

@yanzalong I'll pass. I'm not that strong enough as a beginner. No thanks.

I can't do those poses. Too advanced for me.

Although we do yoga poses as part of our warm up and cool down, I really need to get involved full-time with yoga.

I'm thinking to start Pilates soon. I found some videos by Jessica Valant on YouTube so I guess that would be a nice start.
