Woooohooooo!!! Hoot! Hoot!

I've been practicing yoga for about 7 months now. Today........I stuck the jump from downdog into picasana (sp?).....!!!!!!

For those of you that don't know what the hell I'm talking about.......it's sort of like a pop-up on your board. Only.......from a psuedo plank position you jump and put/rest your knees onto your tri-ceps and balance on your palms. I did it today without faltering.......no cheating.....no dropping a foot.....no walking forward and then balancing. Straight jump into balance and stuck it. Yay for me!

[Wilbur Kookmeyer]

I have no idea what you are talking about...but it sounds cool!

Congrats NMM!

Hey nmm,
I'll maybe I'll try your workout. What pool do you swim at?
I've been swimming competitively since age 9. I'm retired now, of course. but I get in and swim a couple times a week. you swim with a masters group, or by yourself?

gotta love the breast stroke though
