Guest guest Posted November 25, 2000 Report Share Posted November 25, 2000 if you haven't checked out the photo section in a while, ezh108 posted about 15 really nice photos of russian yogis en posture, a lot of them in natural settings, ala swenson. i particularly like the urdhva vrishcikasana shot with the guy wearing sunglasses, a portable cd and headphones in posture on a beach of rocks. strong motivation not to face plant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2000 Report Share Posted November 25, 2000 wow--those are great photos. I like the one with the factory in the background (for the contrast). Nice bodies, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 I like the link to the website of Anatoliy Zenchenko, a yoga teacher based in Kiev/Ukraine, that I found in the 'teachers' section of the yogagoa.com site:<br><br><a href=http://yoga.kiev.ua/ target=new>http://yoga.kiev.ua/</a> ..<br><br>Apparently Zenchenko is a student of one of the best-known exponents of 'wild Russian yoga', A. Sidersky ('Sid'). It's not Astanga Yoga, but the pictures in his photogallery are impressive nonetheless. Gosh, this dude is flexible. Clearly his bones must be made of chewing gum - or does he have any bones at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Well, if you like to see more, there is a huge load<br>of yoga picture links on the links page here<br><a href=http://members.fortunecity.com/limbermen/links.html target=new>http://members.fortunecity.com/limbermen/links.html</a><br><br>George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 I'm glad Senor has got us laughing again. Speaking of flexible...today I watched the 2nd series being practiced after I finished the 6 a.m. and there was a woman who touched her feet with her head when Sharath proded her in paschimattanasana!!!! And some of those backbends were beyond what i thought was possible! <br><br>I think Lino Miele is here, not practicing with us in the morn, watching. I could be wrong...I have only seen his videos.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2001 Report Share Posted September 20, 2001 He's coming to Penzance, Cornwall, in mid-October to do a workshop, and I'll meet him then - and let you know whether he is indeed human!<br>He's currently in Buenos Aires at the Olympic Yoga World Cup.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 But...2 dozen photos of a full room of downdogs is getting boring. I appreciate you and others who are taking photos, but we're seeing the same things over and over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 you could probably find LOTS of other photos on the internet that aren't "boring"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
