Biography
Welcome to this admittedly strange blog! I've been practicing yoga since September 11, 2001, and Ashtanga for about 12 years. Having tried all of the major styles of hatha yoga, Ashtanga was the one that felt right for me. I find it to be meditative and transforming. More recently, I've become more than interested in "engaged buddhism," as taught by Thich Nhat Hanh, my "Ordination Teacher" who probably does not remember my name, but who has touched me deeply. While trying to do my practice, I also work as an attorney at a U.S. law firm, with offices in Mysore, India, where I've spent about half of the last 10 years. My continued Ashtanga practice, and strong connection with Mysore, are both thanks in large part to the late Sri K. Patthabhi Jois, to whom I will be forever grateful.
