Casey and His Yoga

AJ and I went down to Riverside/Turtle Park yesterday and who should we see but Casey Perkins skinny dipping in the Flint River.


Just kidding.

We actually went down there WITH Casey and we ALL went skinny dipping.

KIDDING AGAIN.
Ha. I crack myself up.

We went down there to take pictures of Casey doing some yoga and after finding this great spot on the River, we decided that this small island about 15 yards out would make a great place to do some yoga posing. So Casey stepped in, and walked out one step at a time and well...it ended up being a little deeper than he first anticipated. But he made it out there without being washed downstream so I stood on an outcropping of rocks and took pictures of his poses while AJ threw rocks in the river beside me.

Let's see if I can remember the names for all these poses.
Casey can correct me if I'm wrong...

[as always, click to enlarge]


Warrior III Pose (I think)




Warrior II


Tree Pose



I think this is a variation of Mountain Pose, but I'm not sure what it's called....


A backbend, obviously - I think it might be called Wheel Pose or something....


A variation of Pigeon


Casey is about a week away from being a certified Yoga instructor, and FYI - he's a fantabulous teacher. No really, he is.

If you've ever wanted to try Yoga, email Casey or call up to Kai Yoga on Westover and find out when he's teaching next. Yoga has a lot of health benefits and I've enjoyed doing it several times over the last month - so have Lisa, Cassie, Clint, Amy, and Erica.
You should check it out!
