Happy International Women’s Day! 

Although I do not generally rally behind “international days” of anything (I am sure I wrote a post about this way back…), today allowed me to get onto the embassy grounds of my husband’s homeland. 

A few weeks ago I was contacted by someone in the embassy about doing some yoga sessions for their employees in celebration of this day. They were having an ‘active’ day offering a variety of health-related activities. Yoga being one of them. 

I was actually quite nervous as embassies have some status around here and I have never been properly in another country’s embassy grounds. Also, it is a bit of a big deal to be teaching yoga there since it is a ‘newish’ profession for me. 

However, once I got through the gate I felt very relaxed. It is not so high stress security as the US Embassy, but I still felt secure. 

The grounds for the yoga was lovely with a wide open yard and a great view of the Landmark Tower, which is well-known on the Abu Dhabi skyline.



Once I started teaching it all came to me fluidly. Aside from my quiet voice, it was a great way to start the morning with two back-to-back one-hour sessions for beginners to yoga. The feedback seemed positive as well, so you never know what might come of it. πŸ˜€

So, my first big gig as The OSH Network seems to have been a success! Woohoo!
