Salutations!      
 
     There's something about sunshine in Winter that gets my creative juices to flow.   The time I've spent meditating outdoors allows me time to connect within.  And in doing so, I discovered a well over-flowing with ideas - for my life & for YogaBlaze.

     New ideas for YogaBlaze have already resulted in simplified membership for yoga teachers.  And in the next few months, you'll begin to see more ways to bring yoga into your life:  informative new sections, charitable giving made easy, and community events - like our  premier Yoga Teacher Celebration in April!
 
Time to get your creative juices flowing?  Try a yoga retreat!

2 of my favorite teachers are going to Mexico in April!  Look for... 

Rainey, an amazing woman & out-of-this-world Anusara teacher. (& the first YogaBlaze member!)
 
My dear teacher for the past 8 years -
Eiric Ovrid (with YoBe owner, Dee Hein). 
 
 
As for new ideas for my life?  Without a doubt - more yoga & sunshine!
 
May you find your Self, in Yoga (in Mexico),

Anyone going to SYTAR (Symposium on Yoga Therapy) in LA? 
Come by & see me at the Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy booth!

"In 1999 I seriously injured my sacroiliac. ... I wondered if my practice had actually set me up for the fall. Perhaps those advanced poses had developed too much flexibility, taken me too close to the edge..."
