Practicing Yoga


Victor: Humph! 


Rosaria: What’s the matter? 


Victor: I just got back from my first yoga class and I was sorely disappointed. 


Rosaria: I’ve heard that yoga is very good low-impact exercise and helps with stress relief. It’s supposed to calm the mind and strengthen the body. 


Victor: Yeah, right. 


Rosaria: It sounds like you had a bad experience. Did you have a bad teacher? 


Victor: The teacher was fine. I learned about mantras and chakras, I learned breathing techniques, and I tried a few basic poses 1


Rosaria: That all sounds right from my own experience, such as it is. But, there are a lot of different types of yoga. Maybe you need to try a different kind. 


Victor: The problem wasn’t the kind of yoga being practiced. It was the class. 


Rosaria: Were the mats uncomfortable? 


Victor: No. 


Rosaria: Was it too cramped 2


Victor: No. 


Rosaria: Then what was the problem? 


Victor: There was too much testosterone in the room. 


Rosaria: You mean you were in a class with just men? 


Victor: Yeah. 


Rosaria: And that was a problem? 


Victor: Do you think I would be taking a yoga class if I weren’t trying to meet women?!
