If you missed the last years Xmas card..

Vaso.

Today I finished my night yoga class at TriYoga and said hello to a chap in the changing room on my way out. I didn't recognize who he is just had some deep feeling and said myself "What a friendly looking person.." I asked on reception what's going on tonight as it's pretty busy. It's a workshop with David Swenson. I knew this legend from an old video tape "David Swenson - Ashtanga Yoga - The First Series - The Practice" also heard about him a lot. I had to see him. I asked if he already came and was told he is in the changing room. Oh, now I knew who I have just met. I went back to the changing room and saw again the person I said hello. Now I could recognize his face shape. I just said "Are you David Swenson?" He said "yes". I mentioned that I know him from the video tape and I cannot make his workshop. He asked me for my name and said maybe we see each other next time. Big hug, also said him "enjoy the class" and went home.

It was very nice and unexpected encounter with David. Maybe, I will meet him again..

David began practicing yoga at a very early age in 1969 at the age of 13. His older brother Doug was his first teacher. They practiced hatha yoga from whatever books they could find.

David Swenson is recognized today as one of the worlds foremost practitioners and instructors of Ashtanga Yoga.

I am taking part again in Yoga Aid 2009 and  raising money for The Special Yoga Centre which supports all children through the practice of yoga, with an emphasis on special needs. Yoga develops emotional and physical well being enabling children and adults to reach full potential. They are dedicated to making yoga accessible to all regardless of age, disability, economic status, ethnic background or religion..

I was working hard this year and changed my previous year Yoga routine from 4-6 hours per week to 1 -2 classes per day so should be prepared well J

On the 31st October my challenge will be to complete 108 Surya Namaskaras (Sun Salutations) and to raise a minimum of £108 but this time I am part of the team “Yoga Junkies” - Chi, Stephane, Vaclav

This is a trial for Yoga under the water :-)

I came through this and couldn't believe but now I believe :-) I have to check if there is something similar in the UK so I could also include these to my income :-)
