Blog 10: The Holiday

1) During the break I consistently practiced yoga at the studio and talked to my mentor. I also attended a class let by Balwan who is part of the yoga teacher training program.

2) The most important thing that I learned was not to push myself too hard during class.  My mentor always tells me to take it slow but I really want to master all the poses.  I used to push too hard or go into a part of a posture I wasn't warmed up for and feel really sore the next day.

3) For an interview I would talk to Greg White, the owner of Bikram Yoga Rancho Cucamonga.  He has been teaching Bikram Yoga for 5 years and my mentor and I have explained the senior project to him.
