There's a yoga place near me @Phoenix_Rising@CheerBear. This enthusiasm of yours is spreading. I might check it out. Think they have some introductory special offer.
I already have a purple mat.

HAPPY YOGA DAY @CheerBear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am FREAKING OUT!!!!! This is a crazy crazy CRAZY idea. Whoever heard of a sea turtle going to a yoga class!!!!
I seriously need a very big cheer squad. Hey @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member can you please be in my cheer squad?
Are you as scared as me @CheerBear? I super hate going anywhere for the first time.
We've got this, right? We are going to go to our respective classes, be amazingly uncoordinated, make total fools of ourselves...and that will be ok because the rotation of the earth on its axis doesn't depend on either of us not embarressing ourselves.
@soul I am super excited at the thought of you joining this adventure sometime soon. Seriously, if I can survive a yoga class, ANYBODY can!
Less than nine hours to go now @CheerBear. Ahhhhhhh....!!!!!

Can't wait to hear all about it @Phoenix_Rising @CheerBear.
I picked up a brochure this morning. So many different types of classes. Might have to do some research.

Obviously we are talking over each other here @CheerBear.
I am definitely going to be focusing on how ok it is to be a baby giraffe while I'm being absurdly uncoordinated. A beginner class sounds great - a whole herd of baby giraffes together.
My class is a "general" class. The website says this is a good place to start. It sounds though like there are people of all different abilities and it's a matter of just doing what you are capable of. I get the sense that the classes are quite small and thus the instructor can cater for all levels. I HOPE the class is small! The thing is, I'm so competitive, I know I'm going to be like "I can do that, I can do that," and then as I do myself an injury, "oh...wait...I couldn't do that."
I know it's meant to be all about just focusing on yourself and being in tune with your own body...yeah right, I'll be looking at the person next to me who has probably been doing yoga for ten years and be like "well if SHE can do it, I'm damn well going to do it too."
