The room is warm and quiet. There are yoga mats on the floor. Emma chooses a blue mat. The teacher's name is Anna. She has a calm and friendly voice. 'Welcome everyone,' Anna says. The class begins with deep breathing. Emma closes her eyes and breathes slowly. Then they do some simple stretches. Anna shows each pose slowly. 'Reach your arms up high,' she says. Emma follows the instructions carefully. Some poses are easy. Other poses are more difficult. Emma cannot touch her toes yet. 'That is okay,' Anna says with a smile. 'Just do what feels good for your body.' The music in the room is soft and peaceful. Emma feels relaxed. At the end, they lie down on their mats. This is called the resting pose.
