Guest guest Posted December 18, 2000 Report Share Posted December 18, 2000 (I'm not claiming to be LouLou here - would never presume such a thing - but she hasn't replied, and I'm a Brit too have done workshops with JS, so ....)<br><br>Penzance is 5 or 6 hours by train from London - see "Timetables" on <a href=http://www.railtrack.co.uk target=new>http://www.railtrack.co.uk</a><br><br>I expect it would probably be a bit longer by car. You really don't want a car in central London, it's a nightmare. So is any European capital city (Paris, Brussels - horrible!) - not even New York compares. But on the other hand, a car would be really handy for going sightseeing in Cornwall, which is a very beautiful place. Car hire is expensive in the UK.<br><br>I haven't studied extensively with John Scott but I've done a couple of workshops with him. One of my first teachers was also a student of his. He's a really good teacher. Quite stern and rigorous - not somebody to study with if you want to come away with a warm, cosy, "I'm such a cool yogi" feeling. (Try Danny P for that). But you're a doctor so I expect you also respond well to coming away from lessons with an "oh my god, I've got so much to learn" feeling. The workshops I did were led classes, but I expect what you would get in Penzance would be some of the purest Mysore-style teaching outside Mysore itself.<br><br>I assume you've seen John's website at <a href=http://www.ashtanga.co.uk target=new>http://www.ashtanga.co.uk</a> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 20, 2000 Report Share Posted December 20, 2000 2 bloody long - look, I get twitchy just going to my parents, and they're only 40 minutes outside london. <br><br>But I did get the Scott book about 6 weeks ago. Didn't wanna rub your noses in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
