New Year's Day Class 2008

35 peeps
Packed in.
3 New Peeps

Totally delightful.
I am the luckiest.  To get to show up and hang out with such a rich, full wonderful group.

I totally thought the group was going to be small and had been musing over doing handstands and drop backs on my way to class.  Instead I found myself moving super slow and doing very little.  We sequenced towards upward facing bow pose.  There is so little need to speak when the group is this open.  That to try to convey something too complex is silly.  I spoke towards the possibility of "unresolution".

Request from David that we pause for peace at 11:00am to connect with a group around the world.
