It doesn't matter where they came from. It only matters that they don't create other problems for her as she grows. <br /><br />I've been practicing and teaching adults and kids for many years, and I have seen some amazing therapeutic results that comes from working with the right teachers. I avoided shoulder surgery and managed to completely recover from a destroyed wrist using Yoga as my primary therapy.<br /><br />If it gives you any comfort - after having my completely shattered from a car accident, I am still more flexible in that wrist than my husband who has the tightest joints I have ever seen. His tightness and asymmetries are all natural so your girl may be in good company. He hates stretching too.AstroYogahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17400073176867653214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-40114739858417751092009-06-14T05:27:58.412-04:002009-06-14T05:27:58.412-04:00Always a good thing to remember when dealing with ...Always a good thing to remember when dealing with medical specialists - "when your only tool is a hammer, all problems look a lot like a nail."AstroYogahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17400073176867653214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-37545249190650262092009-06-14T00:01:14.522-04:002009-06-14T00:01:14.522-04:00I could never have enough strength to be a parent....I could never have enough strength to be a parent.Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12525264720105877075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-78323887006058353672009-06-13T14:40:02.656-04:002009-06-13T14:40:02.656-04:00Yoga sounds fun and theraputic for both of you!

If they would only teach the amount of stress/worry/anxiety a parent has from the moment of conception, that would scare off any prom night follies.<br /><br />Also, you might want to find a kid yoga class for Thing 1 this summer. Seriously, it will help and be fun. Stretches are much cooler when called "flip the dog" and "wheel" (wrists), "rag doll" (back and hamstrings), "downward dog" (calves) and "crow" (for fun and to show up your old man). <br /><br />Keep us posted.
