Yoga

I have been a yoga instructor in addition to a writer and Professor. It has changed my life. The way that I learned, initially, was with ballet classes in Philadelphia as a youth. I was in the Philadelphia Ballet. 

Reading Holy texts  and  knowledge of anatomy and physiology are the first steps to balance in yoga. The two types I have studied are Hatha at the Himalayan Institute in Honesdale, PA and India and Iyengar Yoga which I study now. Here are some links:
