My First Hot Yoga Experience

Yesterday morning Raewyn, our friend Ady, and I attended our first hot yoga class at Purple Yoga in Fullerton. They have an awesome 2 week introductory pass for $20, so we figured it'd be fun to try. We were all supposed to go hiking over the weekend but we got pancakes instead, so we were super determined not to flake out on yoga! Lo and behold, we were late to our first class...we're the worst. Luckily this studio is pretty relaxed and they let us in. I am incredibly sore this morning, and feeling totally awesome and satisfied, so I'd say I had a fantastic experience! We're going back later this week and I am excited! I had a rocky start to the class, mostly because I seriously could not focus on what I was doing. There's a lot that goes on in a hot room full of sweaty bodies...sounds pretty...but it's actually not. Take a peek inside my brain...ALSO, I hate looking at people's feet, so I'm sorry about this picture...BUT look at all the pretty pink stuff! #pinkpower

Alright, it's really not that hot in here, I can totally hang...
*10 minutes later*
Alright, it's actually pretty hot in here, I might die...
*Looks over at Raewyn & Ady's faces*
Uhm, they look pretty uncomfortable, I wonder if I look like that too?
*Looks at mirror*
OMG I look terrible...
*Looks around room*
Ballerina looking girl in the front of the class looks really intense. Let me follow her every move...
...FML it's hot in here....
I wonder where Nelly recorded his music video? Was it actually hot in there? 
Why's that guy wearing such short shorts?
I wonder if sweat gets trapped in his armpit hair? How do guys walk around with so much hair under there like it's no big deal?
Okay, focus.
*Cool song comes on*
HEY, they played this during an episode of Gossip Girl!
I wonder if Blake Lively does yoga?
*Thoughts suddenly rush to Adam Levine*
He totally does yoga...
Ballerina looking girl is too hardcore, I can't deal.
It's hot
*Randomly starts thinking about Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendez having a baby*
She's smart. She's locked him down forever. Surely Ryan would never walk out on her, he is too perfect.
I wonder if they'll get married.
I wonder if BuzzFeed will cover the entire thing.
I wonder if they will have a girl.
She would be SO CUTE!
He would look so cute carrying her around omg!
*Instructor tells everyone to shift their bodies to the left and bend down*
Cool, Raewyn's butt is actually in my face. Which means I have my own butt in a strangers face. Great.
*Slowly starting to focus*
SWEAT is seeping into my eyes, omg. OMG. It stings.
*Looks over at thermostat*
It's 99 degrees in here. No big deal. No big deal.
Only 1 degree hotter than Nick Lachey's boy band stint. 
At least my mat and water bottle are super cute and pink.
Everyone must think I look like an idiot with all this pink stuff.
I like pink. Whatevvssss.
*Little more focusing*
K, breathe. Wait, have I been breathing at all during this? I can't remember.
*FOCUSING*
This is niceeeee.
*Totally focused*
Holy crap, this is nice!
*Practice ends and I'm chilling on the floor*
OMG. That was nice! Also, must find better adjectives for my vocabulary.

There you have it. Hot yoga is NICE.

Have you ever been to a hot yoga studio? If so, did you find yourself thinking of the most random crap at the most inappropriate times? PS, anyone have any tips to avoid feeling this sore? HELP!
