I know I said I wasn’t going to update for a couple of weeks, but I just had to share what I did this weekend. I finally did something that I’ve been wanting to do for a couple of years now. You see, one of my high school friends, Sarah, is an aerialist and even has her own mini circus troupe she started called The Weird Sisters Circus. Well, I follow her blog and have always admired her passion for the aerial arts and promised myself long ago that I would try it out…sometime…someday. (Sarah also happens to be designing my blog makeover for me, which is coming along wonderfully if I do say so myself.)
So a few weeks ago Living Social (or Groupon? Can’t remember which one) had a deal for some classes at a local aerial arts studio. Now that I’m not pregnant anymore, I knew this was my chance. So, my friend and I both bought the deal. This weekend we took an ‘intro to aerial workshop’ and it was awesome! I couldn’t believe how hard it was. Well, I could…but I guess I was mostly just shocked with how out of shape I am. I needed help flipping over into the poses, and I couldn’t even flip over enough to get my legs up on the trapeze! And, I could only climb the silks to about 6 inches off the ground. But, this just made me even more determined to get back into shape, and to go back for more. I must climb that silk! So, my friend and I signed up for the beginning class. It starts in February and I can’t wait.
But for now, I’ve got to take care of these sore muscles…two days later and I’m STILL in tons of pain. I’ve also come down with a cold. Yuck.
