Tested For You: Yoga (2)

(Yoga) Later we are allowed to truss up and hurt our partner. I’m not so very sure that this is Yoga after all. “On the pain scale we have now hit 7!”

I’m not making this up, you know!

Tested For You: Yoga (1)

(Yoga) The equipment: mat, foam blocks, belt… cuddly blanket. “That’s my sport.” The lesson starts with trussing up ourselves and lying on a foam thingy. I’m a natural.

I am not too flexible but pretty calm anyway, so I didn’t really feel the need to add Yoga to my life. But by a… eh… misunderstanding I won finagled some Yoga lessons, okay, fine? I am really absolutely not flexible – but very good at relaxing.

Tested For You: Kayaking (3)

(Kayaking) Learning target: kayakers are hard… “We kayak all year long, except the river is frozen all over.” …picture-book Thuringians*. “And we have barbecues for lunch! When it’s freezing we put tin foil on our steaks so they don’t get icy on top while they’re roasted from below.” (*actually not from Thuringia)

That’s how it goes with courses that you book, full of vigour, at the height of summer, that then take place some days after the first snowfall… that’s how heroes are made :)
