Sometimes class starts with a plan.

Then somebody says something.

I say something I probably didn’t need to say.

Peggy gets involved.

Somebody sees something out the window.

And now whatever I thought we were doing is gone.

We usually find our way back.

Usually.

People apologize to us for the strangest things.

“I’m really stiff today.”

“My balance is terrible.”

“I can’t do what I did last week.”

Good.

Now we know what we're working with today.

You don't have to get yourself ready before you come to RiversZen.

Just come in.

I don't really care if you ever become good at exercise.

I'd rather you get good at getting off the floor.

Carrying something awkward.

Turning around to see what's behind you without your whole body filing a complaint.

Going somewhere because it sounds like fun instead of wondering if your body can handle it.

Exercise is useful.

But it's not the damn destination.

One of the hazards of having big windows at RiversZen is that occasionally nature becomes more interesting than I am.

Birds. Boats. Sea lions. Otters.

I can be right in the middle of explaining something I apparently thought was important and realize nobody is looking at me anymore.

Honestly, I can't blame them.

I'd look at the otter too.

There are days when I have to remind people that I am, technically, the instructor.

This usually happens right after somebody in class tells me I’m doing something wrong.

The irritating part is they’re occasionally right.

Peggy seems to enjoy those days more than I do.

Peggy will sometimes be teaching and say, “Just notice what you feel.”

This is dangerous.

Because now everybody starts reporting things.

“My left side feels different.”

“My hip is doing something weird.”

“I feel it in a place I didn’t know I had.”

And sooner or later somebody says something that sends the whole class somewhere else.

There goes the lesson plan.

Again.

Yesterday I stopped in the middle of class because something moved outside the window.

Everybody looked.

Nothing.

So we went back to what we were doing.

Thirty seconds later somebody yelled, “There it is!”

Class stopped again.

This is why it occasionally takes us an hour to get through 45 minutes of exercise.

I can walk into class with a perfectly good plan.

Then somebody asks a question.

Peggy notices something.

I remember a story that has absolutely nothing to do with either one.
A bird flies past the window.

Twenty minutes later we're somewhere I didn't know we were going.

We do eventually get around to the plan.

Sometimes.
