It is my absolute favorite pose. I feel cheated when we don't do it. And then I do it on my own as the class leaves the room. One time I played dead after class because I accidentally smacked the male classmate next to me in the butt 2 or 3 times in class. Funny, he hasn't been next to me since.
Me? No way. I was so embarrassed. It's a very close proximity class...mat to mat. She's a popular teacher. I avoid being next to guys now. I was once grabbed during corpse pose. Maybe that was an accident, too. Hopefully, but I've been creeped out by that guy since.
@kali66@amandal Funny stories from yoga for sure! I've fallen asleep with this pose on more than one occasion. Fortunately in Bikram it is at the end after your breathing. What's embarrassing is when someone starts snoring!
@kali66@amandal Wait until their body oder knocks you over....in Bikram Yoga when the temp is roughly 100 degrees F some real stinky stuff can permeate the air. When you find out who it is, you make sure NOT to get next them.
@mikegifford That's the kind I do...and I always smell good. But man, do I pour sweat. I leave that class liked I just got out of a pool, especially in the summer! We have two classes back to back. The second class is always really gross and stinky with the smells from the first group lingering. Yoga. I love it! I've already done so many yoga shots. Even was doing handstands last week. Maybe I'll play.
