Parent-child yoga workshop.

Michael and I went to this today - it was taught by Cheryl, who teaches the Yoga Kids classes and also Vinyasa classes. It ROCKED. Lots of fun with an appropriate amount of spirituality and reverence balanced with silliness. We did some good stretching and worked through some poses, both alone and with our partner/child. We used the iyengar ropes on the walls and all the kids were fearless, holding the ropes and walking their feet up the walls until they were upside down. I couldn't do it, though. I did backbend off the wall holding the ropes, but the inversion on the ropes was too much. Michael and I did handstands off the walls. Wow, would that ever develop some upper body strength! I am going to try to do some of that every day - though there isn't much wall space here without a picture on it. I also felt kind of proud of myself for doing that, since inversions is (are?) the things that keep me from trying the iyengar classes.
