yesterday i was in a strangely good mood for no apparent reason, but today i was feeling tired and kind of blah, so i wasn't really overexcited about going to aerial dance class tonight. however, i gamely sucked down a mocha and ambled over. man oh man what a great class! we did an improvisational warmup with a little beanbag pillow each, using it to help us get into our bodies and to encourage us to move in different ways. close your eyes and get to know the pillow. explore and move with it. hold the pillow between your knees and see how you can move. put it on your head, a shoulder, between your wrists... it was a wonderful warmup for me, because it totally relaxed me and helped me to feel really comfortable moving in my body. especially since i kept my eyes closed. then we partnered up and held the little pillows between our palms, moving together and exchanging the lead. delightful! it's such an amazing feeling when i'm actually relaxed and disinhibited enough to move comfortably and expressively. yay dance! ahem. anyway, it was a wonderfully invigorating and happy-making class, and i love that Echoes is on KALW for my drive home.
