On
02/13/2023,
I
took
my
very
first
yoga
class
in
a
Body
&
Brain
Studio.
I
will
be
the
first
to
admit
I
am
absolutely
no
yoga
specialist,
I
do
not
speak
lingo,
and
I
had
no
plans
of
becoming
a
member
anytime
in
the
near
future.
But
what
I
DO
know,
is
that
I
loved
my
first
yoga
experience
and
highly
recommend
that
everyone
get
out
and
try
a
new
yoga
class
this
spring!
I
typically
run
on
the
treadmill,
maybe
lift
a
few
weights,
sit
in
the
sauna,
and
hope
it
works
some
miracles.
Getting
out
of
the
house
and
stepping
out
of
my
normal
element
was
exactly
what
I
needed,
and
I
didn’t
even
know
it.
Thanks
to
the
Body
&
Brain
Studio,
my
eyes
have
been
opened
to
the
number
of
opportunities
there
are
to
try
new
classes,
get
outdoors
and
discover
fun
areas
in
my
little
village.
I
finally
feel
like
I
can
leave
the
house
on
a
cold
winter
day
and
not
use
the
weather
as
an
excuse,
because
the
Body
&
Brain
Studio
has
a
ton
of
things
to
keep
me
warm
and
active.
The
same
goes
with
getting
out
of
the
house
to
go
to
yoga
private
lessons.
To
start
the
class,
the
Master
/
Instructor
walked
us
through
each
of
the
items
we’d
be
using,
where
to
sit/stand,
and
some
basic
form.
The
Master
or
Instructor
clearly
explained
each
pose,
and
over
time
we
were
building
from
one
pose
to
another
with
a
flow
that
wasn’t
too
challenging
to
keep
up
with.
I
can
only
imagine
how
complicated
it
probably
gets
as
I
get
into
more
advanced
classes!
One
thing
that
I
loved
was
how
often
it
was
mentioned
that
this
was
my
experience
as
an
individual,
and
to
stay
in
tune
with
what
my
body
needed
that
day.
Basically,
the
opposite
of
what
I’m
used
to
in
a
fitness
regime
-
This
wasn’t
about
pushing
harder
and
setting
physical
records,
this
was
about
staying
mentally
focused,
and
really
focusing
on
what
felt
right.
Yoga
is
not
a
comparison
game.
It’s
all
about
us
as
individuals.
Another
piece
that
was
brought
up
a
few
times
was
letting
go
of
things
-
both
physical
and
mental.
We
were
reminded
to
let
go
of
our
worldly
stresses
-
none
of
which
needed
to
be
on
our
mind
at
that
moment,
taking
away
from
our
mental
focus.
The
Master
/
Instructor
also
continued
to
check
in
with
us
about
where
we
were
holding
tension.
Every
single
time
they
said
it,
I
was
clenching
either
my
jaw,
forehead,
or
behind
my
eyes.
It’s
amazing
how
often
I’m
doing
that
and
holding
stress
there
without
even
realizing
that
I’m
exerting
extra
energy.
I
better
believe
I
grabbed
a
schedule
on
the
way
out.
Healing
yoga,
right
here!
I
can
completely
see
the
long-term
benefits
of
a
mind
and
body
class
like
this,
and
hey
-
I
should
probably
start
wearing
my
yoga
leggings
to
more
than
just
the
grocery
store.
If
you’re
on
the
edge
about
getting
out
there
and
trying
a
new
class,
just
do
it.
Let
the
Master
/
Instructor
know
you
are
a
newbie
as
I
am,
and
they’ll
make
sure
they
drop
some
helpful
hints
throughout
the
class
and
keep
a
close
eye
on
you
to
make
sure
what
they’re
saying
is
related.
Master
Anita’s
attention
to
detail
during
our
healing
yoga
session
is
unmatched.
I
felt
a
strong
sense
of
calm
upon
arrival
at
the
Body
&
Brain
studio,
and
every
moment
throughout
my
session
was
met
with
peace
and
tranquility.
It
was
a
great
experience!
Learned
so
much
and
will
definitely
be
contacting
her
for
a
private
session!
Also,
Master
Beatriz
walks
me
through
the
whole
practice
and
brings
peace
to
the
practice.
I
highly
recommend
it
if
someone
is
starting
out
or
has
experience
and
wants
to
go
a
little
deeper
into
the
practice.
Perfect
for
beginners
who
want
to
learn
about
yoga
practice
&
may
be
too
shy
to
go
to
an
actual
class.
The
Body
and
Brain
Team
has
the
experience
to
help
with
wherever
they
know
about
the
different
yoga
styles.
I
love
their
dedication
and
knowledge
about
yoga.
They
create
a
lesson
that
is
unique
to
us.
They
truly
are
the
best
yoga
instructors.
Thank
you.
