In self reflection, I realized that I have developed a few traits over the years, like a certain sense of skepticism and snarkiness, all wrapped in a tongue in cheek live and let live perspective.

The Yoga studio scene in Seattle is seeing some changes as we transition from February to March. + Om Yoga of Redmond is closing its doors after 2 years. Owner Karen Herold is an amazing woman for having a full time executive job, coaching her daughters’ sports teams, and of course, teaching and running a small [...] Comrades, lock your doors, hide your children, The Yoga Arms are here, and they will make you cry.

If tight shoulders prevent you from raising your arms straight and parallel, in line with [...] Really? Like, really? Just when you thought the yoga world doesn’t get any weirder… it does.

The grumbling, the rumbling, the bottled-up shakti shakin’, the face-off of the century (so far) in the yoga world: is yoga a sport? Can it be competed? Can it be in the Summer Olympics? Hell, why not in the Winter Olympics too? In the left [...] I am frequently approached about creating a website: the steps involved, the research, and time, and most importantly, the cost. So, I thought I would write a summary of the typical process and cost of building a website here, with the precaution that this varies widely, depending on where you live, what kind of website [...] If you’re a regular reader of this blog, or if you’re a student in my class, you may have noticed that I talk a lot about pain. “Are you some sort of masochist?”, you might wonder, “What is the deal?” I can’t offer any good reason for my proclivity towards pain, other than the fact that [...] |
