Another week has come and gone! The second week went way faster than the first. We did a lot of philosophy and anatomy. It's good that I've learned a lot about the body in school.. I can't imagine not having learned it before not to mention the people who don't have English as their first language.
We've started teaching 20 minute classes.. Yesterday was interesting.. When English isn't your first language it's obviously harder to teach so some of the classes drag.
We do 2 hours of self practice in the morning before breakfast which is really cool- shows how much we're learning that we can go for 2 hours. Then we teach each other for another 2 hours. Holding all the poses for 5x longer than usual while the teachers stumble/ look for the English words.
I taught today.. I was a little nervous- at the beginning it seemed like my tongue was too big for my mouth and my mouth was parched.. And i sweat more in my own class from nerves than doing the other classes haha. But after a minute or two it was fine. I feel like it came pretty naturally.
Next week we start teaching 45 minute classes! 20 minutes was a good starting point but it went by so fast and you couldn't really incorporate everything you wanted to.
Im about to go for a run on the beach (shoes on this time!! My calves were sore for days after my shoeless run) one of the dogs from Ashiyana is gonna run with me he's soo cute, he's colored like a rotweiler but smaller. It's nice to run in the day because there aren't any wild dogs around... Just lots of people- some of which are pretty wild too haha.
Everyone here talks about how they don't want to go back to "real life" but I'm excited to haha. It's amaaazing here but I feel like I'm living in a little plastic bubble. A plastic bubble of paradise though which is why they don't want t leave I guess.
We have an afternoon off tomorrow- goof to another market I think :)
Missing everyone <3
