1 Runaway Man
“Svet commanded us as she paced back and forth in the basement community room of Congregation B’Nai Jacob. “Allow the prana to course through your body on this beautiful winter morning.”
Eight of us had shown up at six o’clock on this blustery, not-so-beautiful morning. It was now an hour later and we’d arrived at savasana, or corpse pose, our exhausted limbs splayed out on our mats, sweat pouring from us. Russian-born Svet’s sunrise yoga class is a grueling workout. But stamina and core strengt...h are important in my line of work. And so I drag myself out of bed before dawn three mornings a week.
“Welcome the day,” she implored us, her thick accent and commanding bearing infusing her words with a vaguely martial aura. “You will feel peaceful. You will embrace your inner strength.”
B’nai Jacob is the small neighborhood temple where my dad became a regular after the cancer took hold of him. It’s a squat stone building on West 102nd Street, midway between Amsterdam and Columbus, that looks like either an undersized firehouse or an oversized mausoleum.MoreLess
