I'm back.
Wow I've been doing a whole load of Ashtanga lately...workshops..mysore classes...phew..
I managed to go to J for 3 mysore classes while in Singapore. Loads of interesting techniques I got on floating, lifting..etc etc. Its soo tiring..
I actually wrote a longgggg post on this trip. But I'm not going to publish it...J mentioned some things to me that I don't feel very comfortable talking about..yes its about my practice..and its about following the system..and your teacher...but I don't quite agree with what was said..so I'm having a hard time applying and reconciling it to my own practice.
Anyway...just some bits I would talk about...J said I should start reading the sutras seriously because I've reached a stage where I should have a better understanding of yoga besides the poses. I guess it makes sense. I've never mentioned to him before that I teach. I think that would come with too much unnessasary(sp?) expectations. He also said that I have strength now...so hurray. I still don't have enough understanding on how to apply the bandhas..(fair enough).
OK...its been a long day flying back from Singapore..so I'm gonna stop here..

I'm curious about your longer past now sounds really interesting!
hullo skelly...
its mainly about following 1 teacher and 1 system..hard for me to do since I have no shala to go to and resort to going to workshops and whatever teacher I can get to..authorized/certified or not.
I thought its a bit unrealistic given my circumstances...anyhow thats the gist or it..;)
