We have an old Chinese lady in ours who's always farting. She cracks us all up.

Farting is allowed ;-). There are actually some yoga poses that can be used to encourage the expelling of intestinal gases :-o!

I'm going to try and find one that is a bit *more* Ommmy! I tried the Ashtanga at our gym a couple of times and it's too quick for me. I used to enjoy a Hatha (I think) class, that was mostly stretching, some balance and a tiny bit of strength, but quite a lot of relaxation with bits of Ommming! At Christmas we did a chant that was actually quite fun. We were all in the mood for it! Is Hatha the term I'm looking for? Is there another word or description that I should look out for that is used for the style of yoga that I described above? Thanks Yogurts. G

The slightly-mommy class that I do is billed as Hatha and is exactly as you describe it

Hatha is a general term for yoga and classes can be for strength, balance, relaxation or all three. This might help. google.co.uk |

That's a really good link. Can thread admin stick it in the header perhaps?

Presumably that would be plodding hippo unless she's passed ownership on to someone else.
