What do ya mean you're too old?!
As with any relationship, you know when its time to take it to the next level. You might say yoga and I have been dating for some time now. Its even gotten pretty serious between us. Well, the next step of the yoga journey is underway. My goal has been to start yoga teacher training before I retire and I had this year in mind. So exciting to feel that I have found my passion. The plan has been put on hold a couple of times for various reasons in the last year. That tells me I wasn’t ready. Guess what? Today I am ready.
After months of research and attending various yoga classes around my city to help me find a program that would fit my life, I have selected a program! I had no idea there were so many options. Weekly, biweekly, monthly, good grief. Since I have a full time job and a husband (and would like to keep both), it was important to me to find something that would work around both of those. I START IN JANUARY!!!
Super excited about the journey I am about to embark on. Oh, and ready for the icing on this cake? A very dear friend of many years is joining me! She has a similar passion for yoga and a dream of teaching in her retirement. She is already retired and is ready to get this going. I am starting to order the books on the reading list and will probably get a head start on a couple of them because I just can't wait. WOW.
I believe its never too late to follow your dream. Too old? No such thing. Finally found your passion? Hooray for you. You are one of the lucky ones. Go for it!
(P.S. When I start training in January, I will be 61.)
