Final day

Last day of classes feels completely surreal. 8.30am class taught by Rajashree - what a powerful class I always feel much stronger practising next to friends Luiciana, Helena, Beau, Karima, Ben & Wayne. At the end of the class the whole of training stood, clapped and showed our respect and thanks to Rajashree, she got a bit emotional which also made most of us share her tears. 

Afternoon lecture was very much required, Bikram had to go through the rest of the postures and I was certain there would be plenty of questions - I had an inkling this day would be longer then expected. Well what do you know I was right he completed the postures at 6.30pm therefore class began at 7pm instead of 5pm. 

This class was a defining moment for all 430 students. All  additional family, friends, guest teachers, and everyone whom has come for the championships & graduation would be attending this class making it possibly 700 plus in the hot room with us today surely some kind of record. You could feel the excitement and power from everyone. Billi & I got an incredible place at the front with Nancy, Karolina, Tully, Karima & Dee.  I felt awesome during this class Strong, powerful & focused the sheer confirmation this class was my last on training. My 9 week journey had come to the end, an absolute evolution from the  first class where I left the hot room, missed postures & lost determination. Today I had given my mind, body soul to my practise and truly believe this training has made me a stronger person. The class finished on a high, spine twist where I could feel the tears of pure genuine happiness pushing through. The class roared with cheers - everyone showed each other how proud they where of themselves & fellow students. Billi & I had an emotional hug with tears of joy, for 5 whole minutes I completely lost myself in the joy & cheers hugging sweaty bodies...then I threw myself back into my reality this was actually gross I had to leave and shower and cleanse my aura. 

Bikrams last lecture, deep meditation and the end of this training and it wouldn't be a lecture without Billi getting her blackberry taken off her.
