Class 1 of 6 in the series. Kira was sick today so I taught solo. They are such a wonderful group and I had so much fun teaching. Such an honor and delight to work with this group. There is a sweet intimacy and ease.
note: i thought the class was 1 1/2 hours long (it's really only 1 hour + 15 minutes) so I ended up going a over. they didn't seem to mind too much, but i know better for next week.
