Gaffes, Blunders, Bloopers, Embarrassing Moments, Horror Stories: call them what you will, Yoga classes are full of them.
Balancing in Bow, we had our ankles in our hands, backs bent with swan-like grace to the sky and Belinda, my yoga instructor said "You can rock if you want to"... Instantly, the lyrics of "The Safety Dance" popped into my head.
At the same moment, I heard Liz snicker beside me.
We made eye contact.
All hope was lost.
We were done for.
Collapsing into fits of giggles on the floor, our mirthful contagion spreading, Liz and I were helpless against the laughter consuming us. To this day, we couldn't tell you what was so hilarious about that moment.
Lucky for us, Belinda was also caught in the gale, or we would have been asked to leave!
Perhaps because of its increasing popularity, the lighter side of yoga is getting a bit more public attention these days, from YouTube to the New York Times.
