Help of Ojai Yoga Class, Thursday 11am

This has become one of my most favorite classes.
In many ways it is "cutting edge" for me in the way I teach and share.

This class video will be posted here soon:

I spoke of Sutra 1.1 and made an effort to hold the space to teach the Sanskrit.  WE also played with Sutra 1.2.  Talk was mostly on how what we are doing is preparation to assist in the miracle of Yoga.

i'm pretty impressed at how much you are able to put into the class--it really is inspiring to know how flexible and active we can aspire to be in our 80s :)
