Wow! Since watching Twilight and 4 books later, is the much awaited trailer for New Moon ready? Although I was not a fan of the book New Moon ( also agreed by many of my friends ), I am still eagerly anticipating for the next movie to be release so that I can watch the cool vampires with a romance to boot.
The revered founder of modern day Ashtanga yoga, Pattabhi Jois, has passed away on May 18 2009.
The day after he died, I went for an ashtanga class. I thought about Guruji as he was fondly known as by all his ashtanga students all over the world ( with numerous great teachers like David Life, David Swenson etc and famous stars like Madonna, Sting ). Although I am not a avid practitioner of Ashtanga, my occasional practice has brought me much benefits and much respect about the founder.
I just got an email from yoga journal that is about standing poses. In it, it shared the video of John Friend teaching the standing poses… it’s really beautiful…. I love the love and meaning that John gives to the practice. 
Beautiful energy and how he paints each pose.
He’s funny too! Just delightful!

The amazing thing, the class is over 800 people!
PS. I gotta transcribe this!

I remember back in Aug 2007, I wrote a post on my blog on my Cowface ( Gomukhasana ). It was one of those poses that I can never bind by myself. Now after 2 years, I can bind both sides on my own… well, hooking on to the fingers for a start. It’s still not easy for me as I still have to wiggle and adjust but I could do the binding on my own without help from anyone or towel. I used to think will I be able to do the binding, EVER? Well, this proves that with practice anything is possible!
