Haribol! Next tuesday, Sept. 22, we won't have yoga. I'll be busy learning a different yoga style next week... so, I'll see you all on the 29th of September.
We had a very good class last night - everybody was so engaged, so focused. We had beautiful poses done by everyone... it was a real joy!
I also wanted to let you know that there will be a wellness fair on Sept. 26, from 10:00am to 2:00pm in Spanish Fork, in the parking lot area where KMart is located. There will be some yoga too.
Love to all - and I'll see you on the 29th, @ 6:30pm!
Namaste

A bit of yoga poetry
Delicious breath blows through this body,
soft like crushed rose petal dust.
Transparent bones
land on mat.
Familiar dog folding forward and
back,
snake the spine around
this heart.
No tomorrow
no (to)night,
only now, delicious breath. (unknown author)

Yoga, yoga, yoga...
Salutations to all! I wish all of you are doing well in Light and Love.
The decision to move the yoga class to Tuesday seems to have been a good one. I like the energy of Tuesday...
Just to remind you all, our yoga class is open to anyone who wants to join and enjoy some time of relaxation, breathing, meditation and contact with oneself. There are no fees - this is a donation based community class. We meet every Tuesday, 6:30 pm @ 1156 South State St., suite 206 in Orem. I teach private classes too, for those interested in a one-on-one approach. If you have any questions feel free to email me @ timpanyoga@gmail.com.
Bring your mat... come have fun!

Helping and learning go hand in hand...
Salutations yogis/yoginis! I must confess that I'm very proud of my son... he always teaches me valuable lessons and I feel blessed to have such wonderful teacher.
Yesterday, as we drove back from school, he told me he was impressed with the number of classmates asking him for help in math. "And I don't think I'm that good mom..." he said. I asked him how he felt about helping his friends, and he told me he felt good about it. He has a natural desire to be helpful... not at home, of course. Don't even think about asking him to put the garbage out! "This is child exploitation mom!" However, when he sees a friend in dire need of help, he won't think twice to come to his rescue. And there, in the car, I told him that when we help someone is when we have the opportunity to learn. You learn more every time you help.
I remember my first year as an elementary school teacher. I had just graduated, and felt I knew absolutely nothing that I could teach to my class. The same feeling came to me when I started teaching yoga: "What can I possibly share or teach? I am not that good at it..." I came to the conclusion that, as time goes by and you stick with the idea that you can be of help, and you're going to try your best to help one, two, ten, or twenty people, you realize that you are learning more than you ever thought possible by serving another. I helped children for 10 years, and they taught me much. As for yoga... I'm learning with you... and from you...
Live from the heart, help and learn with and from others.

Schedule change...
Salutations! Our Yoga class is going from Thursday to Tuesday, same place and time. This is an experiment - it seems to me that quite a few people have some engagement on Thursdays, which makes it difficult for them to come and enjoy some good time doing Yoga. I hope soon we will have so many people coming to class that we will have it twice a week!
So, Yoga on Tuesday eve, 6:30pm @ the same address in Orem (please, look older posting for correct address, or email us!).
Our class last Thursday was great! Such wonderful practice... we got to play with a very "dancing" sequence, with Ganesha and Kali, Hindu gods who have special characteristics needed for our times. We were all so happy at the end.
I hope you can join us for our next practice... it will be special.
Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
