Hello, I think I'm at the midpoint of my time here.......and so much has changed already. Really enjoyed led class today. Sharath who is leading the class is really nice. When I got to to garba pindasana lotus with arms through and resting on your face he saw me and smiled and came over with some water. Bit star struck today, like wow how lucky am I to be here. There is so much energy in the shala with everyone practicing at the same time and in led class we...

Hello there, short entry today . I hope that I will get more into photograhy next week, been a bit tentative getting it out, as it's new and I'm new too, here at least or perhaps every moment if I cared to notice. Well I probably have a new flat mate called Sarah, she's going to stay tonight and decide in the morning. Today was led class. As I am doing more of the series than Monday I found it even tougher.
