“alright guys, we're going to be going into downward dog….” brooklyn was teaching his yoga class out on the beach that bright morning, getting into position as he pushed his ass upward and hands down onto the ground. “we're going to stay like this for a few minutes.” his head looked over to the class of demigods. a mix of demigods, satyrs, and nymphs who were all following along.
