I forget how I heard about this particular free class, but knowing that the weather this weekend was going to be gorgeous, and that if I don't have something specific to be out of bed for on Saturdays I'll sleep till 1pm and waste the day, I decided to give it a shot. After all, free yoga! Sunshine! Next door to a farmers market! All of my favorite things. Which is how I found myself slathering on the 30 SPF and hopping in my car to head off to Berkeley for Yoga on the Bay free yoga classes.
I got to class ten or fifteen minutes late (mostly because I needed my weekend Philz coffee, and the line was hella long...what's that you say, I can't use "hella" unless I'm from CA?) and thought that maybe I'd missed it. Finally I found our teacher Star sitting in the field doing a seated twist. And by "our" I mean "my" because I was the only person there. Apparently this is a new program and they're still spreading the word. But Star was very sweet and told me that I was lucky - that I'd be getting a personal yoga class.
And no joke, that's what happened. I got an hour-long personal yoga session!
