Extra Post December

Last week the flooring was redone.  Believe it or not, this is actually a special type of carpet that doesn't absorb any moisture.  The old laminate was put in too close together which is not good.  It's a change but much better.

The  break has really thrown me out of whack.  I haven't been checking my email so I drove to mentorship not knowing the 7am class was cancelled :(

Blog 9: EQ

1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ

2. 
 a.  What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss

• This EQ seems to be proficient, pretty sure it was one from last year, but it could be a lot more specific. Like changing "weight loss" to a specific BMI or fat percentage

 b.  What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?

• This EQ is better than the last but "most important" could be elaborated more. Like "important factor" or "important resource". 

 c.  What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?

• This EQ is fine the way it is, it's specific enough to give more precise answers. 

 d.  How can an Anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?

• This EQ looks fine, just maybe specify what type of chronic pain?

3.  I'm having trouble finding specific answers for "How can Bikram Yoga increase strength and flexibility in young adults". I'm thinking that it might be too specific. I might change it to something along the lines of "What is the most helpful benefit of practicing Bikram Yoga".

Extra Post October

Although I seem to be getting the "hard" yoga poses I completely and utterly fail at the "easy" ones.

Blog 8 Research and Working EQ

1) My working EQ is How does Bikram Yoga increase strength and flexibility in young adults

2)

• The elevated temperature in the room allows muscles to build and stretch without the needed for an extended warm up.
• Bikram Yoga's repetitious sequence of poses allows greater focus on proper form instead of worrying about new poses.

3) The article How Yoga Can Wreck Your Body by William J Broad has been the most influential, its really terrifying how people can get permanently injured doing yoga and its make me a lot more careful.

4) My mentor is Vanessa Gomez, manager at Bikram Yoga Rancho Cucamonga. I have been practicing yoga to experience its benefits first hand.  

Blog 7 independent component 1

1) I plan on doing 30 more hours of mentorship for my independent component, it will include working reception (which entails answering phones and logging transactions) and attending classes.
2) I will log all activities on a spreadsheet as well as post pictures to my blog.
3) I think that the more I am involved in the studio the more I will understand my topic. Especially since I will have to answer questions on the phone and at the front desk.
