Nce beach shot! Woohoo! Yes, the Girl Scouts were awesome and they loved it! Who knew little girls could just do wheel like it was nothing! Then I did drop backs with them and they really loved that and then handstands. A bunch of them had gymnastics experience so they wanted to run at me, but I made them come into down dog and kick up. They could all do it! And you know what they loved the best - Savasana - what a blessing! The mom's were impressed that I calmed them down so much. I just loved it though. My final teacher exam was so many things - fun, nerve wracking, informative and a little rough. Being as I have never really taught a class (other than the practice ones to friends and family) it was really daunting to teach Julia, Donna and Tom (not Tom so much, mostly Donna). Their main critique was that I needed to have more confidence and that I needed to remember how the asanas feel as I'm guiding the class, but they all felt that would come with time. After the confidence comment, I went into Ashtanga Basic, where Tom has me lead Sun Salutes (and always tells me to be more confident) and I led those Sun Salutes like I was the Queen of England. Tom and my hubby, who was taking class, were both impressed. I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I do hope to see you at the studio soon. If you ever need a sub or know of any gigs, let me know :)

Yes, that's me wiht Bryan Kest. I used to do yoga with Bryan's Power videos numbers one, two, and three. I still do them occasionally. He has mellowed quite a bit now that he is a bit older and and a daddy. His workshop in chicago was wonderful. I've also been to his studio in santa monica for 90 minutes of sweat! His brother Johnny is also great in his own right. I've spoken to him, but haven't taken his class yet.

Hi! My dad took me to my first yoga class ever -- in the late 90s? -- in Columbus. I can't remember where the class was; the instructor's name was Richard, I think. I still go back to see my dad once or twice a year but he has stopped doing yoga, unfortunately. Where do you practice? Where's a good place to go?

Have fun with your final teaching requirement before certification. I plan to complete my paperwork for the additional certification this month. I have a little time now before my college yoga students return. Unfortuantely, I've been feeling sick. But, hey I can write while sick in bed!

Hi Loretta - it's awesome to see you on here! So far so good for me. I practiced New Year's day with Tom - we both did a really relaxed primary series, then mysore this morning. Tomorrow I plan on going to Donna's class. I have to teach Donna, Julia and Tom at 1:30 tomorrow to finish all of my qualifications for teacher training. Wish me luck! I love your page!

My new gorgeous eco-friendly mat


I've already thanked yogamum, but should do so once again here. Hooray for earning a new personalized yoga mat from woyopracmo! I praticed every day in January and was able to earn a reward. (Must admit that on some days after teaching and demonstrating during several yoga classes that my personal prcatice was brief)
I was able… Continue

great news

I don't know how many folks will read this, but I have an exciting new venture. I'll begin teaching the employees of Whole Foods yoga onsite! Yay! I've been pursuing this job for some time and I'm very happy it will begin soon. Class will be early moring before the store opens. It will be followed by a healthy breakfast. So I'll be teaching yoga and breakfasting with Whole Foods employees. It will be once per week, but I see it expanding to more days. Yay. So thankful. Life is good.

abandonment

I sort of abandoned this site as my life got really busy. Happily my yoga practice remains great and my teaching jobs are very rewarding. A note from Kathy reminded me to post. I've been keeping a qiet blog this year everyday and post my yoga thoughts there. I also have been making an effort to work on some art--something creative-- everyday. So that and our house makeover(lots of painting & remodeling--bought carpeting yesterday), family life, and my full time teaching job--something was
