Snicker, Snicker, Buzz, Buzz
I decided to venture over to the gym at work and take the Wednesday, 11 am pilates class.
The instructor had a slight British accent which somehow made her instructions of contracting, extending and isolating muscles less of an order and more of a polite and reasonable request with an implied promise of crumpets if we all did well. She was thorough in her guidance, using great descriptions to highlight what muscles to use and how we could identify that we were doing the exercise correctly.
While in a position similar to the precursor to the classic Yoga stance downward dog pose the instructor said, "Extend your taill bone like a naughty bee about to sting someone from behind."
It was worse than trying not to laugh in church.

Chair pose? How Funny! How could you not laugh?!?!?!? Our Yoga instructor sometimes throws in a joke or two for good measure to see if we're all paying attention. Sometimes it seems just wrong to break you "centering" to laugh! :) (I do it anyway)
