What was your first yoga experience?

I managed a breakfast restaurant in Newmarket, NH and this couple came in all blissed out every Sunday morning.  How and why?  I want some of that.  They were household yogis and came from practice each week.  They were kind enough to lend me a video of a John Friend practice.  I borrowed a yoga mat, not sure from who at the time, and went into my roommates tiny bedroom because he had the only VCR (this was January 2000 so no DVD's yet) and did my first practice.
