...stuff if you have a yoga, bodywork and breath or pranayama background.

I havent seen much in the old Yogic texts about partner work but it seems unlikely they didnt get together and play. And I think that Trust Yoga or related forms are going to really grow in the West. Because as more people do yoga, and more couples do yoga, they are going to be amazed when they discover there is this magic, deep and sensual yoga that allows them to practice not just together, but actually with each other.

Yoga for kids should be taught more often and in different places. It is important to teach children the meaning of union of mind, body and spirit.

There is such a wealth of knowledge that we can offer to our children with the practice of Yoga.

Should Yoga Teachers Be Marketing Themselves?

...Is marketing Yoga unethical? Is it wrong to make money by teaching Yoga classes? Is it wrong to be teaching Yoga as a career? In a nut shell, the answer is no. How can you exist without making a living?
