Started to look at the yoga journal conference details this morning. I think I'm going to be able to afford one day. Trying to decide what day to do... debates between Thursday intensive or a Friday or Saturday day pass. I wish I could do the full main conference, but that's a wee bit expensive for my budget, plus then I'd have to find somewhere to stay in Estes Park and I doubt that is cheap. Have to have registration in by July 31st... so I have a while, however, it says the day passes are limitted... I have no idea how limitted those may or may not be.
I've never really been to a yoga workshop before so I'm very curious to attend and see how everything is run. In addition to all of the fabulous information I'll get... e! And I'd totally be lying if I didn't say I wasn't looking forward to the vending. Yoga Jewelry... *drool*

Elevation Day 3
Unfortunately (but as was expected) I was dead tired Sunday morning. Got down to Golden about an hour before Kassar's class started and had time to go to the cute coffee shop next door to paprika and get a fabu chai tea.
Kassar's class was delightfully challenging. Definitely took home a lot of concepts to work on... it makes me want a level 2 drills class, with a huge focus on layering. Maybe I can come up with a curriculum for myself and have me and Stef work on it on Fridays... that would be SWEET.
Stayed for the first 20 minutes of Elijah's workshop and while I was very interested in the concepts he was presenting, the smoke from whatever incense he was burning completely turned my stomach and was giving me a headache. Went over to Paprika's and tried to get rid of the feeling and headache. Talked and shopped with Dian a bit. Found a very cute skirt that I ended up getting.
Had lunch at Quizno's and then headed over the the little park that's tucked away on the east side of the welcome street. Took in some sun and went over TF choreography some more. Still wasn't feeling well so I decided to go home and rest up before TF rehearsal. Spent some nice time with Ryan and took off to rehearsal. 3 hours later I crashed in bed. Ryan was nice enough to pull the barrettes, bobby pins and hair ties out of my hair, he knows that if I sleep with all of that in I'll wake up with a headache. *heart*

Elevation Day 2
I spent the morning costuming for TF and hanging with Ryan, as I only had one workshop on Sat. which was Romka's sword workshop. I loved the choreography and once you got it down it was hard not to add the attitude in. LOL! It was unfortunately a very quick 2 hours... I wish it would have been a 3 hour workshop.
Ran down the street with Ryan and stuffed our faces really quick before the show. Cheated on my no pop rule and indulged in a fabulous cherry coke. Ran back to the Buffalo Rose and waited in line with everyone else for the doors to open. Decided I wanted to just have a fun night and decided to forgo the make-up and fancy clothes, totally just wore my workshop clothes. I have to admit I was excited for the show (which was fantastic), but I was even more excited for the open dance. We had SO many awesome improv girls there that night! It made for an amazing open dance. Jen stuck it out with me until they kicked us out.

Elevation Day 1
The Colorado weather decided to dump a spring snowstorm on us this morning. Yuck. Driving was terrible but I planned and made it out to Golden with perfect timing for my first class with Rachel Brice at 8:30AM. Rachel's class was fabulous as always. It gave me some new concepts and ideas to play with and totally wrapped my brain into a pretzel. 3 hours of w00t!
Went and got lunch with Dian at Capital Grill (I think?) Had a lovely talk with her.
Went back to Buffalo Rose for my second workshop. Kassar's fast combinations. The concepts behind the combo's were fairly simple, but the sequencing was amazing. Beautifully simple. I took video footage of everything today for reference. I have given up at notes since I can never decipher my scribble scratch after a workshop.
Went over to Molly's afterwards and hauled ass on TF9 choreography. I feel a bit better now. However, the brain is goo. Thank God for LUNA bars, they got me through the day in one piece. I heart the chai and smores... OMG! NOM!
Must costume... rehearse... costume... rehearse... organize the brain. ja. It's going to be a long couple of weeks. Wouldn't have it any other way though.
