This Month's e-news is shorter than usual as
I have been away for a number of weeks. We start
with a quote
from BKS Iyengar. From there, we highlight the
Shirley Daventry French Workshop, my latest
certification and ongoing
recovery from surgery.
Words of Wisdom
Guruji BKS Iyengar
"Yoga is nothing if
it is not perfect harmony of the body, senses, mind
and intellect, reason, consciousness and self. When all
these are integrated, that is true yoga."
BKS Iyengar
Shirley Daventry French Workshop & Classes
November 17 - 22
Deepen your knowledge of yoga with this
remarkable
teacher. Shirley Daventry French integrates the
philosophy and psychology of yoga with the practical
work of asana and pranayama.
I'd like to encourage students to come out for some,
if not all, of Shirley's sessions. Regular
classes will be canceled for her workshop from
Friday November 17 - Wednesday November 22.
Shirley's All Levels Classes are suitable for all
students. Her Intermediate Classes and Workshops are
suitable for
Level II-IV students.
Pranayama is open to all who have been doing yoga
practice for at least one year.

School director achieves Senior Intermediate I certification
Returning from surgery
I have
been away
for a couple of reasons.
While in Toronto at an assessment, I was
granted certification at the Senior Intermediate I
level. At
this time, I am the only Iyengar teacher in Asia
with senior certification.
The Iyengar certification system is an ongoing
process that ensures teachers are continually
studying and learning. Certification helps
maintain a consistent standard of teaching worldwide.
Surgery
I injured myself earlier this summer and had to have
surgery to repair a tear in my shoulder. I will be
teaching most of my regular classes again, but for
a time will do so without demonstrating poses
myself.
Schedule changes
Family yoga & women's classes take a break
Please note, for the rest of the
year, we have
canceled two classes: Sunday morning Family
Yoga as well as the Tuesday morning Women's
class.
Thursday morning with Krissey (Level 2) has also
been cancelled, however she teaches Level
2 from 12:45 - 2:15 pm.
