New Classes, New Studio
I was not actively looking for change. But, when the universe opens a door this widely and the light from within is shining this brightly. The decision is obvious.

By my own admission, I am a “retreat junkie”. My total days-in-retreat count is about 300 and I will be upping that number about 10% in the near future!
Read more...Yoga and Wine?
It never ceases to amaze me that wonderful things happen whenever I challenge myself. Of course there were doubts (The winery is too far; The redwood grove isn’t flat enough; There was a chance of rain; Yoga and wine?)
Read more...Men’s Yoga Apparel (Part I)
Men’s yoga wear is woefully uninspired and that is probably our fault. If I am an example, I want function and I don’t want to spend much for it. For me function means minimal resistance when I move. That’s why I always practice in sleeveless shirts and shorts.

It is the merging and intermeshing not only of two bodies and two personalities, but also of two life stories.
