yes! i grew up thinking no pain no gain!! sad reality is, that theory, shortened my dance career, injuries took me off stage sooner than planned... the idea of striving toward an unreachable perfection drove me but it is a relief to let that go! your post makes me think a restorative yoga class is just what I need :)
ah yes, i can only imagine how pervasive that mentality is in the dance world. and probably makes the relief on the other side all the more powerful, too. love you deb!! i'm envisioning a yoga class date for you and michelle soon :)
