Greetings to all. I'm looking for a place to

spend several weeks this summer learning and practicing

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in the traditional (Mysore) format.

I'm interested in approximately 4-6 weeks or so

beginning in July. Time and money likely preclude the idea

of studying directly in India. Besides, as a

neophyte in both world travel and Ashtanga, it might be

more prudent to work up to such a trip.<br><br>I have

no particular interest in celebrity culture or

flagrant tourism, just a sincere practice community.

Certified teachers would be good, but I'm more concerned

with the quality of the teaching. I'm able to travel

outside the USA within the limits of my finances.

<br><br>Any suggestions or advice would be greatly

appreciated. Please feel free to respond directly as this

conversation may not be of interest to the entire list.

<br><br>Namaste,<br>James

that's kind of difficult to answer without some

guidance from you. where are you coming from? what part of

the country are you hoping to go to? <br><br>just

about all the certified teachers listed in the

ashtanga.com site have web sites that you can peruse to find

if their schedule fits your needs. they all teach

mysore style. there are strong ashtanga communities in

LA, San Diego area, NYC, San Francisco and many other

areas. I know that many people come from others areas of

the country to study with people like tim miller in

encinitas and eddie stern in NYC, to name a couple of well

thought of teachers in the states (of which there are

many others, certified and non-certified).

Hello James<br><br>You may take a look at

www.yoga.pro.br, this is a brazilian site and, even if you don't

understand portuguese, you can e-mail them asking about the

deep Ashtanga Yoga workshop they are organizing in the

south os brazil, in a very beautiful island. I can say

they are serious people and the quality of pratice you

can have there is really great. One of the organizers

has just arrived from Mysore. And Brazil is very

cheap for americans at the moment, for example, the

whole july month of daily practice and conversations

and etc. would cost around Us$ 800.00, including

hotel, workshop and 2 veg. meals a day. Take a look at

it! <br><br>Hope you can benefit from my

suggestion.<br><br>Namaste!<br>goldenhair
