As someone who has started yoga several times I can assert that if you dont do it regularly it is still hard to start back out doing it

Kinda surprised on this one. Hadn't Hanners done Yoga during her self-discovery binge? She should be able to keep up with the beginners class, at least?

This is *exactly* what I was hoping for with these two dorks. Thanks, Jeph! This was a bright spot in a generally crappy day.

Marigold is me doing yoga. 10/10 can relate.

Panel 3 is a very difficult pose to do in a first beginners session!

Do it! We believe in you. A big reason I keep doing yoga is so that I can maintain my independence as I age. It's never going to get easier to start.

The meniscus _is_ the cushion (it's the cartilage). It would seem, then, that you - like me - no longer have the meniscus in your knee. I also have the added advantage of no longer having an ACL in my knee. It bends all sorts of directions - usually at the most inopportune moments. My doctor looked at my MRI and said "you can't walk." (Mind you, I had just _walked_ into his office.) I simply told him "I'm too stubborn not to."

I can't do chair pose any more. The cartilage on the outside of my left knee has been, and I use the surgeon's word, "extruded" from its position and thus I have no cushion between my femur and meniscus. It's so much fun. Ahh to be young again and able to do a whole yoga class without pain.

Jeph: Will you be putting out a yoga instruction manual or poster any time soon?

You know, I'm 36, been out of shape pretty much my whole life, and this arc is making me think Yoga is the kind of working out I can get behind. Because obviously I hate working out. But getting older is challenging (especially if you have a small baby)

My favorite part of any yoga class is when the teacher falls over. It makes me feel so much better that they have to work at it too. (But not so much better that I'm willing to keep doing yoga )

Honestly I love that Hanners isn't perfect at this, it's kind of nice to see they both have stuff they can work on

Well, at least it’s nice to have a friend who’s both better and worse than them. To show them that they are good at some things, and to help them get better at others.

Yes. I wonder how Hannahs first dealt with increased earth gravity. Yeah, the station had artificial gravity, but I don’t think it would have been as great as earth’s.

Impressive that Jephe drew all of that so convincingly. Enough for you to pick up on patterns in their uh... 'styles'.

You generally learn balance as kid,
growing up on a spacestation might mess with that.

Marigold is strong in the legs, but her arms aren't used to holding any weight except their own.
Hanners is light, and was doing physical labor during at least part of he "trip of self discovery, so her strength is more balanced. However, her sense of balance needs work.
Luckily, there's an easy solution for both of them: practice!

Afterwards, they went out for tacos… and Willow got their orders wrong again!

Both of them are fantastic because they went :-) any good yoga teacher is just happy you are moving your body. Your body is worth the care you're trying to give it.

The 'bonk' may be for Hanners falling, or it may be from a certain Shiba Inu meme...
