Loo and Verne do Yoga

I have been doing Hatha Vinyasa Yoga for 2 years now, so when Verne decided she wanted to try a new diet and exercise program, I suggested that we take a class together. Just so happened the local fitness center offers Yoga classes, off we go in the latest Yoga attire and mats, we did look absolutely dashing I might add. But I digress, we made our way to the classroom neglecting to notice the sign on the door that read CHILD BIRTH CLASS.
As we unfurled our mats, Verne, commented on how diverse the class was, women and men of all shapes and ages. We settled into the Perfect Posture as the Yogini walked into the room. I explained to Verne that Hatha Vinyasa focused on breathing in and out of poses. The Yogini suggested we practice our breathing with a simple HEE, HEE, HOO technique, I was glad Verne didnt eat her typical bean burrito for breakfast.
We then was instructed to get into the down face dog pose, very strange not to be starting out with the Sun Salutation poses, but I went with it. When we changed to the cat pose I noticed Verne had managed to wrap her leg around her head and was struggling to get free.
About that time the other practioners turned and gave us strange looks, OH NO! I now noticed the obvious, these women were in the family way!
I quickly unwrapped Verne who was still oblivious to what was happening, grabbed our mats and hauled ass outta there. As we ran I heard a thunderous roar of laughter and two breaks of water at our mistake, jumping into Verne's convertible Beetle, I was confused as how to put the seat belt on. Her head was now in the floorboard and her feet on the ceiling, perhaps I didnt unwrap her the right way.
After a quick stop at the emergency department and explaining what had happened, they got Verne put back together, not before they took pictures and called the local news.
We called Alaska to see if we could hide out there until this was over, all we got was laughter.
So we now have decided to open up our own practice, Midwife Yoga!
