Help - I am not flexible, I don’t think Yoga is for me!
December 30th, 2007 9:51 pmA bit of my Flexibility History - to encourage YOU to join a class!
I am not naturally flexible and I had to earn every bit of flexibility I got. I also was never a “sporty” person. There are memories ofcoming last in swimming, being a very slow runner and crashing into various sporting implements and injuring myself quite badly. I remember falling off balance beams, never being able to do a backward roll and not even being able to do a nice forward roll.
I hated sport – every type, every facet of it. Eventually I did aerobics, lots of it, and it got me fit-but after a while the high impact style taught back in the early 80’s took its toll! This is how my yoga journey started.

I never was one of these perfect “Super Yogis”. I love watching them, I admire them. Their life is yoga. Hours of it every day. Yoga has been part of my life for a very long time but it has never been my life.
