ashtanga yoga in my days

Nice Sunday morning

Today I wanted to try to get to supta kurmasana sitting up, putting one leg at the time behind my head (like John Scott). I tried it after having done my everything-on-the-ground version of the same. One leg seemed to go up and behind rather easily and the shoulder and the whole side came well in front of the leg, but then I was too scared to try to lift the other leg up. I tried the other side as well, same result. I asked the Teacher if we could try a sitting-up-supta kurmasana one day, he said "why not". I'd feel more safe with the Teacher by my side. It will be interesting.

One of the numerous jumpback-swings on the blocks felt like the real thing. I think I got the idea, or something towards it... Otherwise it is still just like before.

I like these Sunday morning mysores, although I rarely go there. It is a nice feeling to not to be in a hurry.
