Re: Teaching Kids (in Teaching Yoga) I taught a middle school group last year, a special classroom of ADD/ADHD kids. Mainly boys. They liked challenging balancing poses. They liked handstand and headstand. They liked arm balances that they could do but I can't. They couldn't sti... read more

about me
reconstructed life from the ashes of a ivory tower to the pleasure of a yoga mat and dance floor. There is nothing better in the world than a big empty room with a clean, springy, wooden floor.
