My exercise routine has become, well, a routine. There's nothing wrong with routine except that I get bored and sometimes I wouldn't exercise at all.
I did yoga before. So I thought I'd join a yoga class again here to break the monotony of my exercise routine.
Yesterday I visited Kundalini Yoga Cambodia and signed up myself for 1 session. I wanted to see how it goes first before I sign up for a longer duration if ever.
The price per session is $9. For a 10-class pass valid for 3 months, it's only $70.
This morning I had my first Kundalini Yoga experience. We had the class on a rooftop. It was breezy and cool. There were 6 of us girls and a lone man.
The poses we did were familiar to me, Sun salutation, child pose, cobra, etc. But I noticed that we did a lot of breathing exercises.
According to their leaflet, Kundalini Yoga exercises do not depend on physical strength and fitness, but emphasize fluent and repetitive movement, synchronised with breath and concentration.
Aha!
To be honest, at first I thought I wouldn't like it. I wanted extreme poses that I have to work hard. But deeper into the session, I felt my muscles relax and the tension around my neck slowly vanish. I was loving it.
The poses were not so hard but the repetitions were longer making me work hard to keep my balance. Before I knew it, I was sweating profusely.
After the class, I immediately signed up for a 10-class pass. I am hooked!

I was doing yoga (religiously) when I was still in Makati. When I moved here through Wii Fit na lang. Iba pa rin talaga yung within a yoga class.
True, iba talaga if you're in a class compared to doing it on your own =)
