The 2nd installment of Intro to Yoga at [...]
This is another video in the New Yoga Teacher to New Yoga Teacher series, part of my work to support new yoga teachers. Here I talk about how to deal with both good days and bad days, and yes, they do happen. As they say about riding and laying down a motorcycle: it’s not a [...]
This past weekend during my 500-hour teacher training, Denise Carrico came to talk to us about teaching yoga for people with cancer. Denise is a yoga teacher in the Integral tradition who has been teaching yoga for 20+ years and for people with cancer for 12 years at Seattle Cancer Lifeline in Phinney Ridge and [...]
If you are looking for a quality Yoga Teacher Training Program, look no further than Pacific Yoga Teacher Training & Advanced Studies.

I spent this past week fully living in yoga, from morning to night, with a schedule packed with Yoga Asanas, Pranayama, Philosophy, Art of Teaching, and the Business of Yoga.
Without going into exhausting details of everything we did (and it was exhausting, physically and mentally), I will say that it brought me closer to my [...]
Up until recently, I had not paid very much attention to the idea of the yoga “lineage” or “tradition”, in the broad sense of the word.
I have nothing against it; I’ve just not felt any real kinship to any lineage or tradition. They all seem to have something good, something bad, and something in between, [...]
This weekend marks the start of my 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Pacific Yoga in Seattle. My classmates have come from such diverse background and traditions, from Iyengar to Kripalu to Baptiste Vinyasa, and from all walks of life, as artists, scientists, builders, technologists…

Muscles 'n Bones, Oh My! As you know I am big into learning Anatomy and everything that facilitates our movements. The books from Ray Long, an orthopedic surgeon and student of B.K.S. Iyengar, are beautiful to look at and can be a great tool in your exploration of hatha yoga.
