hope springs eternal

 
it's official: it's finally spring.  or so they say.  the biblical amount of rain in boston lately would make one presume otherwise.  but i suppose hoping and believing will pay off in the end.  speaking of, i found out yesterday that i will be taking over my very own class at the wellbridge athletic club in harvard square!  i'll be teaching a slow-flow vinyasa class monday's from 5-6pm.  i had been subbing this particular class for about a month now when the group exercise coordinator suggested to the regular teacher that perhaps rather than having me sub all the time, that i should be put on the schedule.  and much to my surprise, the regular teacher agreed and handed the class over. 

so things are starting slowly but surely. this last monday, for the first time i really felt like i was being more myself while i was teaching.  saying things the way that i wanted to say them rather than searching for the words.  perhaps knowing there was a possibility that i would make this class my own helped me to settle in more as i taught, i guess we will see if my theory proves true when next week's class rolls around.  

in other news i have had a meeting with a new gym and a studio in the last two weeks to see about getting a position teaching.  the studio, located in dedham (a 30 minute drive) has already told me that they want to have me on the sub list and will be making more firm plans about everything mid-april-may-ish.    the gym will be opening in west newton in mid-april and i should be hearing something any day now.  i was supposed to hear last week, but that turned into this week and now who knows.  i am hopeful, but trying not to be attached to anything.  i'd love to get more experience and more teaching slots during the week, but i realize i am pretty green - which is a hard sell.  so, much like waiting for the sun to come back out, all i can do is believe is that it will all happen in it's own time.  

so here's hoping.  for more forward motion.  for some sun.  and for some much needed joy.
