The Joy of Being a Student

Being a student is magical.

There is SO MUCH to learn. Surprising and challenging things to try.

Even things you may already know (a little or lot about) can be experienced in fun, new ways.

Some things you're good at right away.

Some things feel impossibly out of reach forever.

And then, one day... your mind, your body, just gets it. Something clicks.

Maybe it was a prop used a new way. Maybe the teacher's words. Maybe it was the sequence poses.

Or maybe it was your years of practice
of trying over and over again
of not giving up.

When that happens, it feels like magic.

All the classes and practices and hours and hard work settle into the moment. An experience of joy and lightness. Making the impossible possible. Bringing the wilds of your imagination into your physical reality...

And sometimes, joy comes cause it's just plain fun to move 😄

To be a student is to experience joy in the process, in the step-by-step, in the actual living and moving in this body.

May this joy of studentship find you
unexpectedly
and often.
