Ok, if you ever read my blog you will know that I am always late to the party. Two weeks ago when we were told to shelter-in-place, many of my with-it Nia cohorts jumped on this Zoom thing and started teaching. My space is limited in many ways so I didn’t think to join in. My circle was going on and on about all the Nia classes they were taking so I decided to take one. It was fun. Nothing beats an actual class- especially, when, as teacher, I dance to Nia DVDs/online routines all the time, but when you have no choice, it is nice to “be” with people. And after a couple of weeks, I was getting a little pouty because I missed talking to people and so I asked a friend if she wanted to get together online to chat. When we came done to figuring out when she asked if it was just us and we decided to invite a few more people. With a little group of 4 (X2) we had a nice little visit.
I say 4 (X2) because it was actually four of us online, but our hubbies were there too. But the meeting was really just four connections.
It was a very needed human connection time. We had fun. I didn’t take a picture when we were all online because it was really low key. I mean, I talked a few of them into it by saying they could be in the dark. The picture you see is just two of us having joined the meeting and I am only posting it BECAUSE it is blurry so . . . . protecting the people I didn’t ask for permission to post. 🙂
Well, it was fun and I want to do it again this Saturday. But I am curious are YOU Zooming? I also just learned that you can FaceTime with multiple people. But when I do it with one it never works so I don’t understand how it would work with multiple people.
Anyway, let me know if you have taking a class via Zoom? Or if you are gathering with friends via Zoom? Or what you are using to visit with friends during this shelter-in-place period.
