How one class grew from the roots of reading and writing to an urban garden that shapes our thinking about food, community and the journey from the field to the table.




In this class, students are encouraged to reflect and blog about what resonates with them during the work we approach each week. Once a week, usually later in the week, my students submit entries, we go over them and see what will get posted. ~Mary Ann D'Urso, Instructor




Yoga Exercise

Tiffany Taylor

I enjoyed being in yoga class yesterday. The teacher Emma was great. I liked when we had to say "Om," to start relaxing. Yoga for me was relaxing when I stretched my arms in the air. Yoga is peaceful to the mind. I love the cross legged sitting -- it is comfortable. I like when I did the downward facing dog move, because it tightened up my arms and that's a good thing. I also enjoyed the quiet moment we had when I had to think about something good happening in my life. For me, I liked when I did the cobra move. Emma is excellent! She gave everybody good feedback while doing the yoga. I tried doing all the moves. It wasn't great, but I had fun.

When I was in yoga class, I learned that I did better when I had to do the different moves over again. This yoga was good for me because I don't exercise that much. I do a lot of walking. It is good for my legs. So when we did the leg stretch, it felt good, but I feel a little sore (today) because I loosened up my muscles. I would love to take yoga class again. I will be ready with wearing the proper clothes.


(Ed note: Tiffany was a warrior, despite doing yoga in jeans.)
