Who here regularly practices yoga?

And if so, what type?

I have just been accepted into a teacher training program that starts in January. I practice Anusara Yoga - more info here: www.anusarayoga.com

I've been practicing for about ten years now and really love it. I take two or three classes per week and have a daily home practice as well.

I've never done Bikram-style yoga before but I have been to some Ashtanga classes.

I also do Pilates and take one or two classes per week (one mat, one private).

1. I have been practicing with varying levels of commitment for about

three years now. I started with prenatal yoga and really enjoyed it. After I had my baby, I kept practicing. I found I could do it at home during short periods of time when the baby was asleep with little equipment, just a mat.

I have taken some classes at the local Y and Bikram as well. Also read a few books and have a few videos.

Currently, my practice is in some disarray. I go to the Y because they offer child watch, and it is the only way I can get time for a real practice. There was a teacher there I adored, but she was too completely rad for the YMCA and was fired. So now I am stuck doing really repetitive and uninspiring classes. I feel well physically after I finish, but there is no sense of adventure from learning new poses, no feeling of being challenged. I guess the challenge is mostly being patient, grrrrr. Anyway, classes are not going so hot these days.

I have re-instituted my daily home practice. I feel so much better physically and spiritually when I practice daily. My first love is climbing, and the yoga makes a huge improvement to my climbing as well.

In the Fall, my son starts preschool two mornings a week, so that will give me the opportunity to sneak out to a studio class every week. I am looking forward to it.
