Comments:LF 1197 - I took Beginning Relaxation/Fitness with Professor Beattie last semester and it was the best decision. This course is essentially a beginner’s yoga class. I’m not going to lie, I think I had a bad taste in my mouth toward yoga after I went to this class that tried to make it a religious experience that made me feel uncomfortable. But Professor Beattie showed us how to use yoga techniques and poses in everyday life in a way that didn’t make it some weird spiritual thing. I genuinely felt more relaxed after this class (and I had the 8 am slot, so that’s saying something). You have to do one group presentation and there is a midterm and a final. I didn’t feel any stress over these assignments, Professor Beattie just wants to see that you are getting something from the class. This class made me pause and breath in the chaos and a times readjust my priorities to care about what really matters. Amazing class, amazing teacher!! Seriously take Professor Beattie is you can!!  - Grade In Class:A
