Hi:

I hope you are doing well in the midst of the weather, the flu and the lack of Spring!

I am lucky that the daffodils are now up in the San Francisco Bay Area. To me, daffodils are the pure expression of hope. It’s as if Nature is trying to tell us something: no matter what, have hope.

I am also writing to let you know about two upcoming workshops that you might enjoy.

First, every year I teach a five day workshop in Yellow Springs, OH. It is a cozy village of a town. Easy to walk and bike around in, and the attendees are made up in large part of teachers/students who return year after year.

Judith at the end of her workshop at Mount Madonna Center, in Watsonville, CA, in January, with her assistants and yoga teachers, Hannah Callaway, of Vallejo, CA , and Laurie Broderick-Burr from Santa Cruz, CA.

It has become a bit of a “family reunion” atmosphere, and one of my favorite places to teach. This year’s topic is Applied Therapeutics and Restorative Yoga.  We have two sessions per day and are done by late afternoon. Please contact the organizer at: patricia@brainfingers.com.

In June, a great month to be in San Francisco, CA, I am teaching a five day training based on my new book: Yogabody: Anatomy, Kinesiology, and Asana. I have taught this workshop a few other times this past year, and it has been met with enthusiasm. It’s called Experiential Anatomy.

The focus is on learning anatomy as it relates to yoga practice, but we do it from first by learning the laws which govern movement of the body. I like to say about this course that “you already know this in your body, you just don’t know the name of it.” Many teachers have told me what they learned in the course has really  helped their practice and teaching.

Sign up for this June workshop with Yoga Tree at: http://www.yogatreesf.com/teachertraining/index.htm

Finally, I really like this quote: You must learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t possibly live long enough to make them all yourself. (Sam Levenson).

Hope to see you soon. Be sure to enjoy any “mistakes” you make, it makes life richer!

May we live like the lotus, at home in the muddy water.

Namaste,
