Yoga and PyeongChang


For those of you who haven't heard the news: PyeongChang won the 2018 Winter Olympics bid!!!! to read an article about it here is a link.
In other news...
I am now Clare Hubbard the resident Yoga teacher here at Jungwon University. No, I am not equipped to teach yoga but thanks to a $5 well spent on a yoga app I was able to leave myself and 10 other girls in a Sun Salutation Wellness session!!! We have decided we are going to try yoga MWF and move up to more advanced levels. I'm kind of actually really excited, we've all been pretty sore from walking around so much so the stretching is really helpful. I have a feeling the class will grow which is a little nerve racking because I'm not really super aware
of what the next yoga pose is going to be and I have to stand in front of everyone so they can follow me... ahh!!

But I'm still really excited. The location was on the veranda overlooking the mountains and I made them do tree pose on the ledge so I could take a sweet picture of them. (see below)

  1. Very exciting about the Olympics. Cool that you could be there for the announcement. Kind of like being in Beijing for the 50th anniversary of Communism. You've got the knack. That yoga pic is very cool -- looks like a sweet place to hold the session. Does everyone have mats? You'll have to do the advanced session a couple of times on your own before you lead the group in it.

  4. Glad you were attentive to the history of the neighboring country! Is an acceptable goal to work for the Olympic site committee after ETA?
