oh no

[Guest guest]

javra, i've enjoyed some of your posts or at

least your use of language (cannot exactly recall which

and am too lazy to go back) but ..... sivinanda

certification is no claim to fame in asana (maybe a fair intro

to philosophy and bagavatgita if you have no

background in that). It is in my opinion embarassing to

mention that one has been exposed to such a bunch of

selfrighteous wannabe's (and this reference EXcludes the swamis

out of respect). For anyone else reading this suffice

it to say that their yoga asana classes at some of

their camps (advertised fraudulently as teacher

trainings - it requires no prior experience)includes a

class of 150 people led by a person with such a heavy

french accent that no-one around the back could tell

what it is she said while talking on a failing

microphone-, all this done outside on a cement tennis court

through rain wind and shine.And i kid you not.The asana

teacher did not do one single demonstration throughout

the entire month of training. All this after people

paid between $1500 - $2000 for the "training". (and

the very firstposein each clas was the headstand).One

of the assistants and acting like a big shot was a

shmuck called Sarasiva, a loser who couldn't couldn't

make it in the real world in new york and uses this

venue to gain authority (by working for free)and

hitting on the girls at the retreat.<br><br>Please don't

mention sivinanda certification on this venue again. Some

people KNOW what you are talking about. Compared to

their experience in yoga asana BBB is a god and david

swenson has ascended. Anyone having studied the primary

series for a year can teach them - and this is

unfortunately not meant sarcastically. Amen
