Luckily the instructor I have for this beginners series is great and is teaching basic poses as well as informing us about other types of classes and what to look for/what the terminology means. I love that it's so adaptable - like the chair yoga you mentioned.

It's almost more of a character study/domestic drama than a full-on mystery-thriller. And when I started questioning everything I thought I knew... I loved that. I hope you get Daisy Jones soon!

LOL I also put Daisy Jones & The Six on hold at my library. ;) And I was very excited to get a box from B&N last week - not knowing what was inside - because I'd forgotten I'd pre-ordered Restore Me.

It's tough when everything is so busy that you can't hardly get any reading in. Seems like that's been happening to me lately. My audios where I get most of my reading in when it's crazy.

I love that the class is so small - just six of us (and two of those are my husband and my mom). The first class wasn't overly strenuous at all. And even when certain poses were a little difficult or I couldn't hold them for long, the instructor was great about showing alternatives. It was really a great experience... you should give it a try! :)Tanya @ Girl Plus Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357204133826428572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051174949483344057.post-1831769534648270272019-03-11T18:40:40.833-04:002019-03-11T18:40:40.833-04:00I thoroughly enjoyed A Court of Frost and Starligh...I thoroughly enjoyed A Court of Frost and Starlight!
