I know this is an old thread, but I found it with the "search" feature last week as I was responding to a request from a student that we incorporate some postures for the neck into Friday's yin class.

The information in the newsletter was a great help, and the student (who is a massage therapist) said she really appreciated the instruction and the postures.

Thanks!
