Namaste'

With a summer off for the first time in decades, I want to pack in as much as I can. Currently, I'm vacationing with my parents in Lake Tahoe, which is a total treat, but I always have the itch to learn. As a long-term fan and advocate of Yoga, I have been wanting to do an intensive class for a while now.


On June 10th, I was accepted to a 1-month 200-hour Teacher Training course at Yoga Garden here in San Francisco. It'll be intense--6 days a week, full-time with only Sundays off. It will be a challenge, but I can't wait! To prepare myself best for a year abroad, I want to be fully in-tune with my body and feel able to continue my yoga practice without the guidance of a teacher. This should serve me very well for life. I just paid my full tuition, and after my little vacation with the parental units, I'll be expanding my mind, body and spirit.

Wish me luck!

  3. I highly recommend trying yoga. If you find it's not quite great, try another teacher. The difference between a great instructor and a bad one makes all the difference.

  4. I need to get in better shape, but I don't think my body is quite limber enough for some of those yoga poses.

  5. Flexibility isn't necessary, in fact, it's easier to teach someone who is less flexible than someone who is very flexible.
