instructor: Ash Brooke

style: Glow Yoga

This was one of the most fun yoga experiences I've ever had. For finals week Stockton does a bunch of de-stress activities and one of them was glow in the dark yoga. So I gathered up a whole group of friends and we dove in, not too sure what we'd find. We wound up in a dark room, covered in glow-in-the-dark body paint, doing yoga to up-beat dance music. The class itself was good - the instructor went with a pretty classic sequence - some sun salutations and bridges and shoudler stands - but the atmosphere really made this class. Everyone was there just to have fun  - not to find their zen or improve their inversions or whatever. We danced at some points, sang, sighed out loud and proud Oms. I think what I liked most about this class was that I didn't take it so seriously. I didn't worry about pushing myself and my form and improving my practice, I just let loose. I never realized that I took my practice so seriously until I totally didn't. If I could go to a glow yoga once a month, I think it would honestly be perfect to loosen me up and chill me out. Also, side note, it is very hard to balance when its so dark you can hardly see anything. This was really a great practice to end my journals with.
