Nice piece @jasonsnow - I've a few friends whose practice is a relative 'secret' and you'd never know really unless you asked what makes 'em tick - they get up at 5am, do their asana practice, usually Ashtanga ...go to work, don't brag about their new manduka mat or lululemon yoga pants etc - repeat, except Saturdays - of course ;) Nothing wrong with classes imo - but easy to get result orientated, and fall into a weird passive competitive gymnastics light and love rose-tinted pseudo-guru trip. Or maybe that's just me :p
As for Ashtanga (Patabi's) - if only my knees ...
"Nothing wrong with classes imo - but easy to get result orientated, and fall into a weird passive competitive gymnastics light and love rose-tinted pseudo-guru trip. " - agreed!
Thanks for the read and the thoughtful comment :)
My pleasure - happy to see some (((((om))))) reverberating around all the bits and bytes here on steemit ;)
