Odd things teachers say

What are some of the oddest things you've heard your teacher say?

Here are some I've heard:
- your lips should not look like your navel
- the eyes in the back of the buttocks should be level
- let your brain rest into the back of your skull
- don't surprise the groins

I'm sure I'll come up with some more, and I'm sure I've said my share

    - your buttocks are squashes, not pumpkins
    - make barbie feet (which makes sense to those of us who played with the original style barbies)

    This one made me laugh this morning.

    I like to tell my students to use Barney Rubble feet in Tadasana! I liked one I heard a teacher say this past year about the headlights on the front of the hips shining ...something to that order.

    haha, these are great! I need to go back to yoga class. My favorite Yoga teacher moved on for a better job and I haven't gone back to any class. She's a friend outside of class and I sent her one of those joke yoga pages with fake names and told her to use them but she never did.
