The 2nd Niyama: Santosha

Last night in class I put my students in a Restorative Yoga pose. I asked that the students let their mind stay in their body. One strategy to do so is to hang on to something you can hear or feel, such as the breath and sensations in the body.

It was especially noisy outside the [...]

Gettin’ Waggy With It – A Downward Dog Mini Series

If you know me in person or have been following my blog, you know I have a thing for Downward Facing Dog. It’s nothing I need to get therapy for (yet), but I *can* talk about the fine details of this pose from sunrise to sunset.

So, this week and next, I’ll be teaching a Mini [...]

Transform T - A Shirt for Haiti

Tonight I found out that YogaDork was running a t-shirt design contest to raise money for Haiti, and I immediately opened up my Photoshop program.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do.

Back in early November, I submitted a design to a Yoga Journal contest for a freebie to a YJ conference, and I used then [...]

Studio Profile - Taj Yoga in Seattle

As some of you might have read in my previous post or newsletter, I am, to put it lightly, “friggin’ stoked” to be teaching the Intro to Yoga series at Taj Yoga, a studio directed by Theresa Elliott, who’s also the co-director of Pacific Yoga Teacher Training, a Teacher Training program that’s in its 13th [...]

Open Up to the New Year – A BackBending Workshop

The New Year is oftentimes a time to symbolically sweep our plates clean and start with a fresh one. It can be a time for us to reflect and renew certain resolutions, or make new ones. Whether or not the start of a new year holds any symbolic importance to you, this workshop is designed to [...]

After Thanksgiving Downward Dog Workshop at Village Green Yoga in Issaquah

It might be a sign of pumpkin pie overdose when I’ve sat here for the last I-don’t-want-to-confess how long to think of a witty title for my upcoming yoga workshop. “Two Days Later, a Tale of a Downward Turkey” a la 28 Days Later, or “After the Turkey Party is the Downdog Party” with a [...]

Seattle Yoga News – Studio Openings is the New Black

8 Limbs Yoga Phinney Ridge is running behind schedule, and instead of opening this weekend as planned, they’re opening on Thanksgiving Day, and the partay is held on [...]

Seattle Yoga News – Donald Moyer at Two Dog Yoga

As a relatively young yoga practitioner (27), I’m always seeking the wisdom of those that have come before me, like, waaay before me. I’m always asking, who are the teachers’ teachers? The teachers’ teachers’ teachers? I’m not saying that I can’t, or won’t, learn from my contemporaries and other teachers. I know that I have [...]

Teaching Announcement – Donation-based Yoga in North of Seattle

It is with a lot of zeal and pleasure that I announce this: I’ll be teaching Hatha Yoga techniques entirely based on donation at LakeView Yoga in the Bothell/Kenmore/Lake Forest Park neighborhood starting this November, 2009.

This is a pricing philosophy that I have pursued since the start of my teaching career, and I’m grateful that [...]
