Yoga
– to unite, to join
For
me yoga unites the mind, body and spirit. I have been practicing yoga
for about five years and within the last year have really tried to
embody the yoga spirit. I started yoga teacher training in June and
have taken classes and workshops from many studios around KC. I
always feel better after doing yoga and now with my yoga knowledge, I
am focusing on living it and not just when I am in class.
I
started teaching two classes a week at PlattForm and received a great
response. I love taking a break from the day and sharing what I love.
Especially with new people who have never taken a yoga class. I also
think it is awesome that usually out of the 6-7 people who are in
class 2-3 are guys!
Just
this past week, I also started teaching at Aspen Athletic Club. I'm
teaching a Thursday evening and Saturday morning class. The first
class didn't go so well, no one showed up. I was disappointed,
however I had to remember that it wasn't me, as I hadn't even taught here
yet. Being in advertising, I had to think we could have promoted it a
little better. :) The second class I had three show up. I was so
excited! I think it went great and it sounds like they will be back
and I told them about the other class I was teaching too.
I
am about two thirds of the way done with my yoga teacher training
coursework. Just a few more readings, quizzes, videos and books to
get through. The biggest part is going to be teaching 80 classes!
Yes, 80! So, those of you around KC, let's get something on the
calendar. I look forward to sharing with you all!
Namaste
I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells. I honor the place in you which is of Love, of Truth, of Light and of Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One.
