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.

4-21-10 Inner Legs


Watch it wiggle, see it jiggle...

Let's use our inner legs for more than bright white reflectors and jokes! When we tap into the energy from our big toe ball mound through the inner leg to our core, we have opened up a whole new world - and level in our yoga practice. No one said it is easy, but the rewards (yes, multiple rewards) are worth it!
Tonight's quote was a Hindustani proverb: "There is nothing noble about being superior to some other men. The tru nobility is in being superior to your previous self."
