We've finished our second week of classes, which is forward bends and twists. The intensity of the classes builds throughout the week, so the last class is challenging. In my class we did variations of Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana and Parivrtta Upavista Konasana for an hour, which we started right at the beginning of class.
This afternoon, Geeta Bhojwani (the lady mentioned in my blog of Aug. 10th) took us to her vacation home about 45 minutes west of Pune. The drive there was harrowing, but it was worth it. Her place sits up on a hill with manificent views of a lake and mountains.
