200hr TTC blog part 1

This is the end of my third week of 200 hr teacher training course. Yes, half way is completed filled with lots of useful, new knowledges.

Well, let’s get back to the first week. It was the hardest week ever. My whole body from neck to toes were aching. I was always knocked down after the class (sounds pretty bad huh?). Most of the asana in the first week that I have tried it before (wrong alignment), my hips were not squared in poses like Uttthita Trikonasana, Parivrtta Parsvakonasan, well I would say most of the extended and revolved asana I was out of the alignment.

Not mention about the fact that my breathing was not deep, and not consistent. However, being adjusted by the teachers, I have become aware of my alignment, breath (Ujjayi Pranayama). I feel a huge difference in body doing asana this second and third week, stronger, more focus on the breathing and gazing points, more control and more flexible. 

I am very grateful and happy to see myself progressed in the right direction.

Trace.
