India Retreat March 13 - 26, 2012

I have taken the plunge and am planning a trip to Rishikesh in India for two weeks starting March 13, 2012. I'll be back in Canada on March 26, 2012. I am currently undergoing immunization against all manner of possibilities and am very excited about this journey. I have made many promises to take notes, photos and to share as much as possible with my students.

Five ways to prevent injury practicing yoga

An interesting article has appeared in Huffington Post written by Eva Norlyk-Smith suggesting five ways to prevent injury that are:

1. Adopt a beginner's mind.
2. Learn to listen to your body.
3. Do your own pose, not your neighbour's.
4. Look for the intelligent edge.
5. Pick the right teacher and approach.
