!*#@ Yeah, pt 2

Boss chewed me out the other day in front of 400 yogis, something about pushing my hips forward.... Well yesterday I clenched my glutes and pushed my hips forward and I go down. Boss screams "That is BIKRAM YOGA.... Yesterday you were shit, today you are the world... Half Moon - more like Double Moon!" Now he calls me by name, so there's no escape. I think he likes the way I eat shit and die for 90 minutes. "God help me" is my mantra.

If you work, the yoga works.

Week five. What good is having something if you don't know how to use it.

I Love Youga

Little Yogini has had a strong Bikram practice for the past 2 years. She is my first and main student. She can stand in tree forever, camel and floor bow is so easy. She says fixed firm hurts. I tell her that we're not selling cheesecake here!

R.I.C.E.

Three weeks of hot yoga and you know my body hurts.

Suck it in.

Compression of the abdominal wall, contraction of the abdominal muscle. Suck it in, tighten it up, and hold it.

Serious power

One pic does not do justice for this massive daisy chain of forced hot air equipment. The yoga tent tends to run a little hot. About 110 degrees and 80% humidity. It was said by the staff that it costs " a couple of hundred thousand dollars" to heat the tent per month.

Yoga Anatomy

Anatomy class is 3 1/2 hours a day. Posture clinic is another 3 1/2 hours a day. The torture chamber is definitely the fun part of the day. In yoga today I couldn't remember if it was AM or PM. This is week 3.

Tragedy narrowly averted.

My sweaty head broke my blackberry, nearly putting an end to this picture blog. These guys worked all day on it. Bikram said that there are 26 postures in the beginner's class because in the english language saying "A - Z" means you've covered everything completely. When I found A-Z wireless I knew they could do it. Thanx guys.

Things Boss says:

"As a yoga teacher your job is to figure out what the students problems are in 90 minutes. Whatever the problem you stretch it, exercise it and it will heal."

"Welcome to Bikram's Torture Chamber where you come to kill yourself for 90 minutes. There are no doors, there are no windows, there is only eat shit and die."

"Your mind is your worst enemy. That's why we hate everyone, because we are being controlled my our worst enemy."

"You've been using the same broken toilet for the past six months and it's all full of shit."

"99% right is 100% wrong. What good is having something if you don't know how to use it."
