Control, skill, precision - these are how a person is trained in martial arts. Not to mention the goal of trying to avoid aggressive encounters unless they can't be avoided.<br /><br />So what you've learned in Brooks' workshop is very true to those same ideals. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-84974699229607702852010-03-21T16:00:27.079-07:002010-03-21T16:00:27.079-07:00Another of the lucky few who actually get to exper...Another of the lucky few who actually get to experience Brooks' yoga magic in person...I love your last paragraph here...the description of "warrior cool"...much food for thought...YogaforCynicshttp://yogaforcynics.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-12562498000919690812010-03-19T06:57:47.771-07:002010-03-19T06:57:47.771-07:00It's so interesting you mention sensation duri...It's so interesting you mention sensation during warriors and then a completely unparalleled relaxation because I had that exact same experience in Brooks' gentle yoga class a few weeks ago. I was having trouble w/Warrior 2 - well, not trouble necessarily - but my lower back was letting me know I needed to adjust. We used straps to work on the angle of our upper thigh muscles, and the sensation lessened. Then during final relaxation, I moved into a different space altogether. I was floating, too. It was amazing. <br />The Mary Oliver poems is one of my favorites, and I actually posted it on my blog a few weeks ago. It speaks to me! <br /><br />Thanks for this post! Maybe Brooks is just magical! :)LVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382641532162485590noreply@blogger.com
