Exercise

I like to keep fit but being deaf restricts what I can do somewhat. Group exercise is a very difficult activity because even with the implant I can't really hear the instructor's directions, even worse if they have loud music playing as well. I've discovered the perfect deaf persons exercise though, yoga. It's slow enough that I can watch the person in front of me and copy what they are doing without looking like a fool. Yoga also tends to repeat poses so now that I know most of them I can predict what's coming next. This is me enjoying the relaxing aspect of yoga, I'm in the striped top fourth from the left.
