Visiting Teacher Opportunities

This spring there are some major yoga names coming to the Twin Cities. Don't miss the amazing opportunity to study with one or more of these masters:

April 5-6, 2008 - Yoga Center of Minneapolis
Judith Hanson Lasater
: teaches yoga and trains yoga teachers in kinesiology, yoga therapeutics, and the Yoga Sutra in the San Francisco Bay Area. She holds a doctorate in East-West psychology and is a physical therapist. She was originally trained by B.K.S Iyengar (meaning she has a super technical practice) and is THE source for Restorative Yoga. On April 5 she will be conducting a teacher training focused on the Sacroiliac Joint (bottom of the spine) and on April 6 she will hold a Living Your Yoga Workshop which will include some of her restorative work. I am signed up for the whole weekend!

April 25-27, 2008- Begin with Intention Yoga / Clouds in Water Zen Center
Amy Ippoliti
: is a certified Anusara Yoga teacher who has traveled extensively with Anusara founder, John Friend, apprenticing with him on his national tours. She has also studied closely with Tantric scholar, Dr. Douglas Brooks. She leads Anusara Yoga retreats, immersions, workshops, and teacher trainings internationally. According to the website, she is known for her radically affirming teaching style and dynamism, offering her life experience with the potent Universal Principles of Alignment, elegant tantric yoga philosophy, and therapeutics that embody Anusara Yoga.

May 23–25, 2008 – Michelle’s Yoga House
Michael Stone: is a psychotherapist, author and yoga teacher who teaches internationally in studio, academic and medical settings. He is a long-time student in the various traditions of Krishnamacharya and has written extensively on yoga psychology, most recently presenting his work to H.H. The Dalai Lama. He is offering a lecture on Yoga philosophy in daily life along with sessions that combine
asana practice, pranayama, philosophy and discussion. According to the website, “studying with Michael Stone is like being in a Yoga class, a meditation center and a university classroom all at the same time!”

May 31-June 1, 2008 – Yoga Center of Minneapolis
Dharma Mittra
: is a master Yoga teacher and founder of the Dharma Yoga Center in New York City. He started teaching in 1967 after 11 years as a full time yogi and "Bramacharia" (a celibate religious student who lives with his teacher and devotes himself to the practice of spiritual disciplines). He is most known for his amazing Master Yoga Chart of 908 postures used world wide. I have not studied with him, but everyone who has RAVES about the experience. This is a really special opportunity.
