At Training April 20-30th

Hi all, it's Kalavati, I will be attending a training in California from April 20-30th @ Spirit Rock and so will not be able to update. See link for Mindfulness Yoga & Meditation Program, it is an 18 month program. We attend 3 ten day on site retreats and in between have homework readings and writing, plus audio Dharma Talks and such. It has been challenging in many ways but very worthwhile. I have particularly enjoyed and learned from:

Vipassana teachers Jack Kornfield who is so warm and encouraging and Anna Douglas whose dry wit & honesty I truly appreciate. Yoga teachers Tias Little, Sarah Powers, Judith Lasater have been wonderful too and very different from each other.
For those interested in Tias and his trainings, my vibe from him was: serious, yet witty (verrry dry,) very knowledgeable in subtle details both anatomical and esoteric! His style which is Iyengar influenced for my body was a bit harsh. What I mean by that is, he goes into long holdings right away, and I find that my Vata type body first needs movement to warm up and for joints to feel lubricated then longer holdings are great. I'll continue more later on this program and teachers. Feel free to comment on your experience.
