Dear Jeff,
I really enjoyed the workshop for osteoporosis. I don’t have osteoporosis and am hoping that with faithful Avita yoga practice I never will. I took my time, as you suggested, and spread my participation over three days which gave the satisfying feeling of actually being away on retreat. I enjoyed the three part set-up.
I’m very thinky so benefit greatly in the mixture of explanations and body work. I like how you have eliminated the classic yoga flourishes and reduced the twelve shapes to their essence and intention. The pdf is extremely helpful and I’m planning to commit to memory at least some of the shapes so that I can practice them here and there.
The students in the workshop were very lovely and generous in their sharing. It’s always a pleasure to see the age range and to be able to ‘recognize’ my cohort among the older participants. They are both earnest and having fun whatever their flexibility.
I think I have been doing Avita yoga for two or three years now and can feel many benefits. A sudden thought came to me unbidden on the mat towards the very end of the third session: Oh, there’s that little flexible girl inside me who has been long forgotten.’
Thank you, Jeff, for your Avita yoga, for your deep knowledge, tender teaching methods, clear explanations, and wonderful flowing lesson plans.
Blessings,
