What a bright night. The park was flooded in sunlight, don’t always believe everything you hear from the weatherman.

I am still getting the strange looks from the tube people for carrying a bag with eight yoga mats in it. By the amount of attention my bag of yoga mats generate you would think I was carrying a sack of sharp and dangerous objects. It seems interesting enough to divert the commuters attention away from Jordan’s latest on the front of the London Light.

Anyway moving onto the class. Just a quick dog update, we had a bit of interest from a greyhound but Monni didn’t get her leg licked this time. One of the girl’s commented on how lovely it was to feel the sun on her face and how it added to the poses. Another said that she enjoyed breathing in the fresh air when she was in the relaxation pose, adding that it cleared her head on a Monday evening. Most of the group enjoy the chance to stop the mind chatter and stop there minds from acting like a monkey jumping from one tree to another. I think we could have all stayed in savasana (relaxation pose) with the sun shining on our faces for a little bit longer.

Until next week Regents Park Yoga in the Park group, let’s all keep on doing our good weather dances. It seems to work.

Yes yoga folks the chance to get bendy in Regent’s Park is finally here. I am really excited about seeing everyone enjoying taking part in the very first Yoga in the Park. Whopppee. The weather god is smiling on us because it looks like a lovely English summer’s day out there.

It felt very natural and relaxed to see everyone doing yoga in the park. Everyone slipped into the relaxation pose very easily, I could see all the Monday tension disappear. We had a bit of a canine encounter, Monica was mid Warrior pose when she got her leg licked by a little terrier. I thought of bringing a couple of bonios, the premier dog biscuit, but they will probably come back next week. Everyone had a bit of a chuckle after the laughter stopped we got on with the yoga.

We worked on the legs and arms this week and everyone commented how they felt they had definitely worked some of the muscles they hadn’t used for a while. One of the girl’s commented it should help her to banish her bingo wings, for all of you who not down with the term it means the fat underneath the arms. Watch this space for more tales from the green land.
