Welcome to Yogi Sticks!

Do you know your Gomukasana from your Adho Mukha Svanasana? Is your Vrksasana all it can be? And how do you feel about Supta Baddha Konasana? Do you know what I'm even talking about?

Sometimes the Sanskrit - however beautiful it sounds - is not very helpful. So, to encourage my students to expand their yoga practice into their home, I sketch the poses we practice during class on a chart and add the Sanskrit and common name. Hopefully, this is a useful tool to help them along in their yogic journey. I also troll the internet, books, and journals to find interesting articles about yoga and the yogic lifestyle.

Rasa-Lila YogaFest

I attended the 1st annual Rasa-Lila YogaFest this weekend, working in the kids' tent. One of the highlights was to spend the day with Swami Vidyananda. She is a wonderous person, a beautiful light here on earth. She led the opening meditation and then hung out with the kids with a Kiddie Kirtan (a chanting session) and Laughter Yoga.
