Boat pose? Haven't gotten there yet, but I'll keep my eye out for it.

Thanks for the support.

Here's the boat pose: http://www.yogajournal.com/poses/489_1.cfm

It took me a while to be able to do this and hold it and my legs are not as
straight as the person in the picture. One day the instructor said hold for
4 breaths and I did and I was completely amazed because I hadn't even done
the pose for a number of months prior to that.

The Yoga Journal website is a great resource. Just don't try to push beyond
your ability. My instructor says those people in the pictures are dancers
and are more flexible than the majority of the planet so we shouldn't be
intimidated if we can't bend like they do.
