Hello from Greensboro

Hi,

I just stumbled on this forum after typing ‘yoga forums’ into my searchbar… anyway after reading a few posts I thought I’d join up and
see If I can use this as a tool to help me get myself back into some sort of yoga practice…because it feels so good!

Started doing yoga about 10 or so years ago in my early 20’s and have kind of stopped for about the past 3 years not really done much in the way of asanas. Recently had a week at the beach and every day I went out on the dock and did a 30-60 minute asana routine…wow felt so good again even though my belly now gets in the way of many twists, forward bends and such…lol…I just say to myself hey, it doesn’t matter if I can touch my chin to my shins or not, it’s the realtime process of breathing and stretching and feeling that is the ‘yoga’ for me…

Anyway, I hope to keep checking back here and see what kind of community spirit is out there, I remember having fun on some old yoga newsgroups, some really inspirational people out there that have helped me in the past…

Hi there. I’m new to the forum too–been doing yoga for about a year and its changed my life. I just thought I’d say hello and wish you well.

Thanks Brenda for the reply, it cheered me up a bit!

Glad to hear you are reaping the rewards of your yoga practice, keep it up…

It’s amazing how much better you can feel after doing a good routine!
I’ve been watching some yoga on you tube, David Swenson, some old black and white Iyengar and Krishnamacharya, and my old teacher David Sye (yogabeats) has a video up there to.
