I've seen many fit looking 20 year olds take a breather half way through a session because they couldn't keep up.

and we all feel like muppets when we start - there are good and bad sessions. I've been in one where the instructor just gave up on teaching me a certain move cause i couldn't get it... (for the sake of other students and possibly his own sanity)

the next morning i was walking through the house and suddenly i understood what i was meant to have been doing in the movement...whether this is old age or just plain me i don't know...but one foot in front of the other and i know that eventually I'll get there...so will you.

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.
