As part of my regular practice, I also did my first Vrkasana (handstand) in Kazakhstan. I felt a little nervous on my first attempt. As I kicked up, I actually managed to hold the pose, unassisted by the wall for about 3 seconds!!! That has never happened before. I definitely felt like celebrating that small victory.
Staying on the subject of yoga, I have been invited to try out the local yoga class on Thursday night. I will let you know how it goes. It was described as an aerobic-fitness yoga class. I am being collected and taken to the class ... I always enjoy trying a new style. It is great to test your confidence and knowledge in your own practice. I will always practice ashtanga, but I love trying a style that other people find so much joy in as well.
Along with the Russian word of the day, I will also have the asana of the day. Today is: Utthita Hasta Padangustasana.
