Well what a weekend I’ve just experienced.  Spending the weekend studying with Kino McGregor was an incredible experience.  Friday evening was a Demo & chanting.  It was inspiring and moving to watch Kino on her mat.  She moves and breathes so beautifully that you find yourself completely mesmerized. It was lovely to be away with [...]

Can’t believe I’m packing up my yoga travel kit again.  Kino McGregor is hosting a workshop in Edinburgh this weekend and I’m off to be a student again.  This time I’m feeling pretty confident as I’m not alone.  I’m joined by a group of keen yogis from the Spot, Lynne, Sarah, Susanne & Mo.  Of [...]

I left Goa on a  beautiful sunny day and am now sitting in Mumbai Airport waiting for the flight to Heathrow.  I have been in touch with home and it seems I’m returning to a winter wonderland. Soon to be Chilly Gilly…..Yikes, how will I cope with the cold!  I can honestly say that yoga [...]

I thought I would be really sad today but I’m fine.  Practice today was great although I did feel my back was a little more tired that usual.  Slowly all the new postures are starting to sit nicely in my body but I know the work will continue when I get home.  I had a [...]

I wake up smling today and having put my pants on the right way I know it’s going to be a good day!  I felt quite giggly walking to the Shala this morning and find myself smiling during the sun sals!  I smiled lots throughout my practice today even though a few postures didn’t quite go [...]

Woke up to a beautiful sunny day again and wondered how I will go back to the cold!  Practice was lovely today, I had no hopes, wishes, or worries!   I know this is how it’s supposed to be it’s just difficult when you are learning!  Today I  didn’t need to think about the sequence [...]

Was a bit nervous about getting on my mat this morning as I really wasn’t sure how it would go!  As I took my spot (we have the same place everyday) I had butterflies in my tummy!  After chant we began and by the end of the first few Suryanamaskra A I knew today was going to be [...]

Today was my toughest yet!  I knew when I got dressed this morning and put my pants on back to front that things may got to pot.  I was on my mat early, energised and ready to go but  sadly this was not to be my day!  You know when you start Suryanamaskara A and [...]

Hard to believe a week has passed already!  Saturday was our day off so myself and another girl Beate (BEE-AT-TA)went of sightseeing in the morning, beach in the afternoon, market by night!  We had an amazing day but I felt a bit homesick & ‘spotsick’.  Perhaps it was not having my yoga to focus on [...]

At last I managed to Skype with Al!  it was so good chatting with him, I love all that I am experiencing here but do miss my family.  Al is in great form and seems to be enjoying the cooking and laundry………hope he keeps enjoying it when I get back!! Have made a date to [...]
