 Welcome to June's newsletter!
Change is one of the few constants in life, and in Hong Kong the coming and going of people seems to be a regular pattern. This summer there will be some changes at The Iyengar Yoga Centre.
I am sad that my friend and colleague Randa Westland will be leaving Hong Kong. Randa did her Iyengar teacher training at our centre and she has been a great addition to the teaching staff. I'm sure all of Randa's students will join me in wishing her well in her new home, Chicago.
During the month of July, Lauren Cox will be the primary teacher at the studio. Many students fondly remember Lauren from her previous visits to Hong Kong. She comes to us from Canada where she teaches in Victoria, British Columbia. Lauren will take my place while I am studying in India for the month. Please make her welcome. Namaste, Linda |
 Words of Wisdom |
|
Guruji BKS Iyengar |
| "Yoga cannot come in a day and it cannot come in years. It is a lifelong process, provided that the practitioner has the vitamins of faith, memory, courage, absorption, and uninterrupted awareness of attention. These are the five vitamins required for the practice of yoga."

Holy Sacrum - where's that tailbone? |

Come and learn about those parts of your body that are so often mentioned by the yoga teacher.
The Iyengar Yoga Centre of Hong Kong is holding a class designed to help yoga students gain an understanding of basic anatomy so they can improve their asana practice - and move better in their daily lives too.
Angela Tam will take participants through the basics with a fun combination of illustrations, movements and visualizations. This will be followed by a practical application of the new knowledge on the mat, with a yoga session taught by Linda Shevloff.
