Hi bardbear,

I'm way to stiff too, so I've looked around at doing some yoga. First I tried a class at a rec centre and it was pretty hard to do. It took a lot of strength and it was a beginner class. Then I started going to a class that is in the building I work in. It was much more my speed. Problem is, I have a hard time getting to this one because it is during work hours. There is also a local yoga tv program that comes on at 6:00 a.m., so I tape it and do it a night sometimes.

I guess you just have to try different classes until you find what is right for you. Both of the classes I went to had drop in fees, so you could pay for just one class rather than joining up for the whole series.
