Hi Julie - interesting point about the caterpillar and a quiet state of mind. I think generally all forward bends are calming in that respect. Most yoga teachers will prescribe forward bends to calm a student, while back bends are found to be alivening and energizing. Perhaps this has to do with wha...

Hi Anita ... welcome to the Kula. First, let me address your question on doing Yin Yoga, even without a lower leg. YES YOU CAN! I can understand how doing a yang practice could be a big challenge for you, especially the standing poses, but there are very few Yin Yoga poses that require you to stand....

Hi Cheria ... welcome to our little board. Thanks for joining. Your information is now in the Teacher Directory. Please make sure it is to your liking.

Sean, thanks for the link to your research on the kanda. That was useful. I think Island Yogini's question also concerned the other areas as well as the kanda. As you point out, the kanda, or "bulb" is often tought to be right below the perineum or tailbone. The dantiens however are in three locatio...

Hi Mary, welcome to the Yin Yoga teacher's directory. I took the picture from your web page. If I may make a suggestion, your bio doesn't actually talk about any Yin Yoga experience. Perhaps you would like to add something to it? And I also noticed your "links" page on your web site doesn't show any...

Your posting is now up. We had to edit your bio a bit to fit it in, but there is a link to your studio's website so people can learn all about you there. Thanks for joining our kula!

Hey everyone ... Paul Grilley and I have just been talking a bit about a new way at looking at genetics. The common belief in science is that we are pre-wired by our parents and once our DNA is set, it ain't going to change. Well...maybe not. There is growing evidence that what we do also affects an...

Julie/Jenny ... thanks for the prompt replies. (I miss the kula too Julie...thus this kula board :wink: ) My initial sense was that as long as the student doesn't feel any pain or even major discomfort AND is fully healed mild hip openers yin poses should be ok. Jenny you said your doctor husband ur...

Does anyone have any experience or advice about how to teach (in a class setting, not a private) a man who has had both hips replaced? With those hunks of metal binding his femur and hip ... do we avoid any hip openers and just have him do work on the spine? I have a student who loves Yin Yoga and w...
