Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 David Swenson's criminality stems from:<br><br> the fact that at Guruji's workshop in New York, Swenson felt compelled to practice each day front row center and perform his egomaniacal hand stands between each asana in full view of the rest of the class.<br><br>From that fact that he is a tireless self-promoter and self-proclaimed authority that publishes books with pictures of himself performing primary asanas incorrectly. I.e. not touching his head to his shins in forward bends.<br><br>He does have a mean hand stand, but then so do most gymnasts.<br><br>El Senor Pinche Wey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 20, 2001 Report Share Posted May 20, 2001 John Scott's new book recommends handstands after each Navasana. <br><br>Richard Freeman's video does the same.<br><br>Tim Miller also, in the vrksasana camp.<br><br>Lino Miele too, if I'm not mistaken, does a V after each N.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2001 Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 SPW - I notice that you enjoy slamming people referrring to "criminal" yoga teachers and calling people like Thom Birch as "bitch boy." My question to you is this discussion board for a place for people to intelligently and respectfully share information regarding ashtanga yoga?

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2001 Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 Save your breath. SPW doesn't respond to questions or give clarifications. He/she just makes provocative statements and sits back to watch the dance unfold.<br><br> I don't know whether SPW actually believes those statements, whether the statements are made so that SPW's ego gets stroked by watching the responses, or whether there is a mental disorder of some magnitude prompting the statements.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2001 Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 SPW has got the better of you all. I think his tongue is deep in his cheek. Just read the name carefully. Pinch Away. <br><br>Maybe a reference to KPJ's fondness for substantial female bottoms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
