How comfortable are you with not being good at something yet?

Yesterday, I started practicing from a new sax book and tried a new Barre class.

Both put me in that uncomfortable place of not quite knowing what I’m doing. 😂

I haven’t always been comfortable there.

I felt the need to get it right and know what I’m doing and move quickly from beginner to competent.

But one of the things I’ve practised on my yoga mat is staying curious when I haven’t mastered something yet.

What happens if I don’t immediately decide I’m good at this or bad at this?

If I wobble, can I notice the wobble rather than judge it?

If something feels difficult, can I explore it rather than force it?

Can I simply be interested in what happens next?

And, like so many things I practice on the mat, eventually it starts to find its way into life.

It’s something I notice in coaching too. Sometimes the useful place isn’t having the answer — it’s becoming curious enough to stay with not knowing for a while.

So yesterday, with a saxophone in my hands and my legs wondering what on earth was happening in Barre (thankfully not at the same time) 😂, I got to practise it again.

Being new. Not knowing. Staying curious.

I now know that being comfortable with not having mastered something is a skill in itself. And something I’m still practicing.

And just like that. Time for the lamps and pretty lights at morning yoga.

More than just movement but time to Pause, working with what’s real for your own body and step into the day.

A few weeks ago I shared something I hadn’t fully realised at the time.

At the end of dance class everyone takes a turn.

And when my turn came, I didn’t do it.

Not because anyone stopped me.

Not because anyone judged me.

Because a little voice in my head quietly convinced me I would look ridiculous.

So I made myself a promise.

Next time, I’d do it.

Last night I did.

The biggest surprise wasn’t that I faced the fear.

It was what happened afterwards.
I felt so much peace.
Not pride.
Not relief.

The fear had been much bigger than the thing itself. And just doing it (which was a buzz btw) took all that away.

But I think it’s also about community.

It’s a fabulous feeling to be in a place, where it is safe to learn, wobble and get things wrong and still be welcome.

Sometimes confidence doesn’t come from believing in yourself.

Sometimes it comes from being surrounded by people who believe in you until you’re ready to join them.

Can’t thank you enough and your class of beautiful beings.

❤️ 🤗🤗😘

You can come to yoga to improve your flexibility.

You can come to build strength.

You can come for fitness, balance or mobility.

You’ll be very welcome.

But you don’t need to arrive as a better version of yourself first.

You can come exactly as you are.

Tired.Busy.Stressed.Energetic.Distracted.Calm.

Whatever is present today is enough.

The practice is simply an opportunity to pause long enough to notice what’s real.

And from that place, respond to what is needed.

I had such a brilliant time at Heels (the brilliant dance class with the very talented

Then I was asked ‘wanna do solo?’

Without even realising it, I’d already decided not to do it.

The bit I found interesting wasn’t that I didn’t do it.

It was when I realised that my mind had made that decision without me even knowing it had.

It had told me..

‘I’ll look ridiculous’
‘I’m to old’
‘Don’t know the routine’

And in that moment I wasn’t even aware.

Now I am. So next time I’m doing it anyway.

I’m ok with my fear of being ridiculous. I’m ok with actually looking ridiculous. But now I’m aware I’ll make the choice from now on.

So next time…..I’ll be doing the solo.

It’s a dance. 💃
