An opportunity presented itself and without hesitation I am devoting it to the study of yoga.
This is a journal of my growth in yoga.

Pictures/Portfolio
The folks at Jay Peak asked me to create a flyer for the Apres Ski Yoga sessions we are offering. I have no good pictures of me doing yoga (except in a bikini--hardly "apres ski"). So, this evening I set up my camera in the corner of the dining room. The photo shoot proved difficult because I not only had to focus the camera on nothing, but then I had to run and get into position before the timer ended. I realized that I need to have a real session sometime so I have pictures in my portfolio.
My first experience of yoga was a physical ed credit in college. I also have been active in taekwondo, skiing, snowboarding and soccer. A knee injury return my interest to yoga, and I was amazed at how good I felt after the classes--so much energy! My ability in other sports increased mentally and physically, I think injuries were prevented by my flexibility and strength from doing yoga. I found that my preferred form of yoga is Ashtanga. I continued yoga through two pregnancies and eventually received my certificate to teach yoga from Yoga Vermont. I now teach classes regularly at The Edge and within my community.
