Twice a week I go to class in my white workout pajamas. I'm really enjoying it - they teach alot of children's classes, so it's not really hard core (I get a sticker at the end of each class to put against my name on the wall!). <br /><br />Anyway, I'm in Monday's class - just me and my most frequent compatriat - some 15 year old gangly boy - we're in the warm up period which involves stretching and then moving back and forth across the small space doing different kicks and/or athletic moves like jumping jacks. We turn to the instructor to get the next move and she says; 'Ok, now go to the wall and back doing either somersaults or cartwheels - your choice!!' :) :) <br /><br />Pardon!?!? Oh, and then I'll teleport my partner across the room using only the power of my mind, shall I? :) I finally threw myself into some cartwheels - landing on my a$$ each time. The boy helpfully suggested that somersaults were easier. I didn't have the heart to tell him my spine no longer bent that way... <br /><br />:)Annemariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663834490374216223noreply@blogger.com
