so shortly about my saturday special class then..
I went to Berns around 3pm to teach my class with about 1 day of preparation he he.
ctually that it is okey, I was just gonna do my thing and see & feel during this hour what I can do and also what state their are in and how well they listen to my teachings. basicly just doing a light class, since quit much shorter then I am used to teach and also with people who have not especially come for classic HathaYoga, and of course the fact that this was the last of 6 classes for many in one day...
so of the about 200 people that attended this mini-convent I think I counted to about 60-65 was left only to attend my class or the class I jumped in for..
but I was glad that even so many had some energy & interest to do HathaYoga, and most of them had no idea probably about what I do, and just 2 days earlier everyone thought it was gonna be this other class and a premier for that concept in scandinavia..

...and the class before me was the very physical demandning MMA/ body workout class by the fighters Musse & Usama, they are spreading the teachings of their developed concept of "ruffie" [www.ruffietraining.com ].

so.. I was a bit nervous before class, mostly because no time to really prepare and think thru everything since not only short time but also 2 other classes and some other work during that time to take care of.
but I did arrange so I had a 60min music playlist on my iPod ha ha.

the moment I stepped up on stage I felt at home more or less even thoug I had to use a headset wich I normally never do, but not really that nervous at all..
I did a really calm class for them, also so I had the chance to give them an idea of the difference if compare to the more populare vinyasa yoga forms here in Sweden [power & ashtanga, Sats yoga etc]

and then I ended class with a really long and nice deep relaxation, I think their bodies and minds needed that after this long and physical training day.

after the class people came to me and said thanks for a nice class and said they really liked it, and that it "felt really good" and many enjoyed the deeper final relaxation it seemed.

so I am quit happy even though it all happend so fast and it was with theese circumstances that I had it all turned out really well : )

I "stole 2 pics of my class from the main orgaizers web page, there you can also find more pictures from the other classes etc that day wich was also their 15th year anniversary - http://fitness-magazine.com/

just a short glimse from the one day long mini convent this weekend wich i suddenly was called in to teach a class at.
more about it later, just found this video collection so I thought it would be fun to upload it for you to see : )

at about 2.44 in the video there is a small sequense from my HathaYoga class, showing the beginning of the arm-balance part, [also showed them how to do straight armed crane and one legged "eka pada bakasana"] - just to show them what they can manage if the free their mind and use inner awarness & breath..
and then some video shooting from the begining of the final deep relaxation...

I really dont like hearing my own voice ha ha ha
