πI am a rec center evangelist - my mom is an avid swimmer so my sister and I spent our youth at the jungle gym, ping pong tables, and outdoor pool at the Tennis and Swim center in our neighborhood. We were raised in the women's locker room, seeing bodies at all ages and stages, and that was the *healthiest* part of growing up in the valley.
Now, I live walking distance from the best rec center in the city and take classes there 3-5 times a week. I just discovered this class called Nia that's basically modern dance but martial arts inspired (?!) and my friends and I gather at the outdoor pool in the summers and my sister meets me every Saturday morning for Zumba and I've found a magical yin yoga class that has drastically increased my flexibility and I do all of this for the annual price of $200...have I converted you yet?

πΊBack in the day (aka like 4 years ago), I used to wake up early on Sunday mornings to lifeguard the Aqua Tai chi class at the Indianapolis JCC for a ripe $12/hr. I hope i canβt get in trouble for this now but i must admit that I occasionally fell asleep while i ought to have been diligently at my post. It was sooo warm in there, and the instructor would put on this nice flute meditation music, so there was really no way I was gonna make it out of that pool as a star employee.
Anyways, I have to take a PE class now to graduate college, and I have had the delight of taking Tai chi this semester (inspired, of course, by that very JCC Aqua Tai chi class). Itβs a physical and mental meditation, but also a fr workout. Some things I think it helps with: balance, flexibility, bodily awareness, reflexes, mindfulness. Also, low-impact and modifiable to suit different levels of mobility, meaning it lends (or rather, suggests) itself well to long term practice π

π€ΈI first took this class because it mentioned pilates and I'm trynna be that girl, but then I entered and realized it was full of old people who are much more flexible than I. I've been coming every Thursday evening since then, it's the perfect way to end the week!! the end of the class is always a 5 minute meditation moment where i lay down and picture myself in a green field and it doesn't get any better than that!

πas long as Iβm doing my best to be my best I canβt do much else, trying to compare my progress against a whole other life and their experience is silly
taking inspiration and applying lessons to your own life is absolutely valuable though
