I've considered trying again every once in a while, when people I know bring it up and say how much they enjoy it. I realize they're usually doing a more "real" course than I probably did (40 university students in a gym... definitely no names of poses or anything, more like a stretching session, but was still good!). Time and money remain the factor... signing up for something like that here in Alicante is crazy expensive if you want to do it properly (as in not part of a gym membership where the instructors are usually barely trained themselves). Some day! First I need to make up my mind between Yoga and Pilates, then find the time! ;)CrazyCrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512240982215608638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-22343602103273304662018-10-04T12:32:50.842-07:002018-10-04T12:32:50.842-07:00You rock, DJan!You rock, DJan!Trish MacGregorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04949854058098161689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-32548518939796955982018-10-04T05:34:03.200-07:002018-10-04T05:34:03.200-07:00Your activities continue to astound.Your activities continue to astound.Hootin Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811326085498312568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-12301228222199129052018-10-03T13:29:34.506-07:002018-10-03T13:29:34.506-07:00You go girl.

I suspect that you're not going to need luck, however, but you seem highly motivated, and when that happens for you, I've seen from your blog throughout the years that you forge ahead and achieve your goals.

Years ago I took it faithfully, but now I do only the combination Yoga and Aerobics offered 'free' through the emeritus program for Seniors at the local college. It's a good program - with 'free' being the key word. Congrats on your home program!<br />Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-48566515230174199242018-10-03T09:15:50.702-07:002018-10-03T09:15:50.702-07:00Wow!
