Flying Crow - Eka Pada Galavasana Is the Yoga Pose of the Week

When you take a vinyasa-style yoga class, you place yourself fully into the hands of the teacher. He or she decides what postures you will do and in what order. Most of the time, I enjoy this surrender of control, but I do have one pet peeve (try as I might to rise above pet peeves) and it's this: I think I see the sequence building to a certain logical conclusion, an attempt at a climatic pose, and I turn out to be wrong. The moment passes, the pose is not taught, the class continues. Mr. Yoga Teacher, you owe me a flying crow.
