Non-PRO English to Italian Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation yoga

I’d tried yoga a few times. After
Sonia and I were
married,
we’d ventured down to a drab studio in Tribeca, where a mala-necklaced
old woman
made us stand in painful poses while we
focused on a spot on a pitted wall. I did feel more relaxed afterward
(probably acute respiratory alkalosis brought on by deep
breathing, I’d hypothesized), but I hadn’t
kept up with the
practice.
