If you have taken some time away from yoga, whether it's due to an injury or other life event, this is a great class to get you going once again. Fiji slows down the typical pace of her class to spend time re-establishing yoga principles while moving you through a fun, dynamic vinyasa class.

Fiji great class! Welcome to you also back to the Mat! Thank you much. I'm a few days late getting started on this challenge and I look forward to continuing.

Thank you Fiji. I've been away from the mat for a few months. This is a perfect class to re-connect with yoga spirit and practise. (Now I have some catching up to do to get current with the 30-day challenge. )

Namaste. I offer a poem:

Ode to a Yoga Mat

I am the yogi, you are the mat
however long I’ve been gone, however I arrive
you are there to meet and hold me

you accept beads of sweat
dropping warm from my brow
you are the arms that
refuse no embrace

you don’t expect perfection
you don’t judge my form or habits
you ask only that I show up

wherever I’ve been in this battered world
however armored I am, you take me in
such is the power of your heart

each and every day I practice
I vow to peel back the stories
that congest around my heart

you need only that I lean into my pain
ask nothing but my simple breath
and the beating heart of a spiritual pilgrim

ready to be rejoined
into your ocean of love and compassion
for all beings great and small

Good luck with the 30 day challenge! I've never done it before, but am determined to do it!

Just getting started on Day 1 and Back to the Mat with Fiji is perfect after having been sidelined for almost 2 weeks with a knee issue and then a ruptured ovarian cyst! Thank you for this practice! Namaste
