Hi,
Thanks so much for your advice. I went along last night and the teacher recognised me (different teacher but he had been taking part in the class the night before)and told me to take it slowly and not worry about it as it could just be low blood sugar or deyhdration (it’s 40 degrees outside here as well as inside!).
Anyway, I finished the class and it was probably the best one yet. It’s a small thing, but I got my head on my knee in the seated hamstring stretch pose and I haven’t been able to do that for about five years.
Beginners like me worry too much about what other people think, especially when there are some really bendy people in the class! Afterwards I felt better than ever and I’m learning not to expect each session to be the same or even to be as good from one session to another. Thanks again, and great website by the way.
