Yoga, I discovered yoga back in my senior year of college at Seton Hall University, I was looking for an elective to kill time and credits so I could graduate and get the heck out of college and become a hardworking adult career woman (what was I thinking?) 
Turns out that yoga course stayed with me and back in 2008 I signed up for classes at Devotion Yoga, a studio in Hoboken. I was going through a stressful time of job-hunting and roommate changes, and had good memories of blissing out in yoga meditation and poses while taking the course in college. After many Flow & Let Go classes and meditation workshops with an actual Buddhist, I was sold again on yoga’s benefits. How come I didn’t continue yoga after college? After a class, I feel limber, re-energized, soothed, like I can float a little through life, at least until the feeling wears off, the downside is you have to keep doing yoga in order to maintain that endorphin “high”. I went back to my favorite instructor, Jocelyn’s, class this past Wednesday and downward-dogged and warrior-posed my way through an hour and twenty minutes. I sit all day at work and after 8 hours of immobility my body is begging me for some kind of activity.
My body has told me, Roxy, you have hibernated and sat your way through most of winter, now’s the time to get moving again! I started my day today with some Zumba, yes! and I love it, not only ’cause it has a cool name, but because it combines all the things that would make me move my butt. Music (merengue and samba) and dancing. I also threw in some Nathan Blake cardio for the extra sweat! phew** Check out one of the Zumba videos I found, while they are not actually explaining the steps, I was able to keep up and get in a nice dance/workout
