#Previously on the ashtanga classes listing of

who were certified i thought i saw "certified" after

Maty Ezraty's name - however it is not there anymore.

Why? (Betty..?)<br><br>#To Senor P W<br>Refer Guy

Donahaye's recent posting - these are sentiments you share;

delivered in a manner that can carry one's real

name.<br>(But don't change.)<br><br>#To Guy

Donahaye<br>Thankyou for your authorative contributions. Regarding the

Mysore style format....Way-back-when, word has it, yoga

was taught basically one-on-one. It stand to reason

that eventually if there were a tiny group needing

yoga instruction that they would probably not be of

the same level and would need to be individually

instructed. That may be how Krishnamacharya Ji instructed his

students and how Guruji was introduced to this method,

eventually calling it Mysore style. What I'd like to ask you

in this changed situation where yoga is popularised,

causing (large) groups to gather who are of similar level

- does this not indicate an appropriate"ness" for

group instruction, seen in this changed climate that

lends itself to group classes?<br><br>#To the food

pundits<br>People are inspired by something other than didactic

details....it IS useful to be reminded of what makes one

stiff,- thanx for putting that out there. For those

wanting to know what's wonderful for being limber...-

think green (dark green leafy veg). Vibrantly alive

foods bring that energy into one's energy field, and to

each cell. Green juice. BE amazed.<br><br>#to

Homer<br>But you so absolutely MUST visit Native Foods - the

mushroom burger is a big hit. (don't TRY)(just do it)

You write of "(large) groups to gather who are of

similar level". No two persons will ever be of similar

level. Even if you could find two, they would not stay

on similar level for very long. I think exactly the

individual approach possibble in a Mysore class setting is

invaluable in the teaching of astanga yoga.
