Hot Yoga

 A few weeks ago I over heard Susie (Ladies Class trainer) talking about doing a Hot Yoga class. Not thinking anything of it said " I wouldnt mind doing a class myself"
 If you dont know Susie she will hold you to whatever you say. She told me that we would go togther.
 I got a hold of a former student Chris Ketch who I trained to fight for the 2009 'So you think you can fight' event in Nanaimo. He did 3 weeks of training with me and won his division. Well actually he had to fight in a heavier weight class because there wasnt anyone in his. I had him hooked after that.Chris tarined with me for nearly a year in mma after he won the tournament. Chris is one of the owners of  Bodynetix.
 After contacting him he set Susie and myself up with some passes.
 I know now how some people can be intimidated walking down to my club. I was a bit nervous before entering but soon changed after seeing that my old friend Cathy Zinc (Kitty) was teaching (another former student of mine). I actually thought they might put me threw hell for all the torture I put  them threw in the past but was delighted to find out it was a very comfortable setting.
 I walked into the class to find out that I was the only male there. Not having any 'yoga gear' I felt kinda out of place wearing my mma shorts and soccer top but what you wear doesnt really matter as long as your comfortable.
 It was hot in the studio but I have trained in Thailand in much hotter conditions and holding a pose isnt as grueling as hitting the focus mitts or sparring. 
 I enjoyed the class. The different stretches and how quiet it the room was made it easy to focus. I wasnt able to do all the poses but didnt feel like I was far off. I am flexible for a big man and do a few of the stretches that were covered in classes of my own down at the club.
 I have to say that it was well taught and am looking forward to my next class. Hot Yoga at Bodynetix will be added to my own training shedule in the future.
 I would like to thank Chris Ketch and Susie for making this happen!
