Today Geetaji emphasized on not losing sight of the foundational work on Asana, regardless of years of experience. As we age the body deteriorates: if our foundational actions are incorrect the deterioration will be worse. More to come soon...
- The flower arrangement at entrance of our hotel…always so very beautiful.
- Leanne about to enter the main hall at the venue where it all happens
- Juliana in the designated prop room where we leave our prop bag overnight. …thank goodness, they are great but cumbersome.
- Participants finding their place morning of the first full day of class… and Geetaji’s birthday!

At the orientation today, Geetaji emphasized the importance of including the yamas and niyamas in asana and pranayama practice . Without these, Yoga would be just physical exercise .
For more in-depth refresher of the Yamas and Niyamas, let's take the time to read again the Introduction in Light on Yoga by Guruji.
Day 1 of Yoganushasanam 2015
- Scene of hallbefore Geeta arrived..like one huge family with lots of catching up with each other
- Geetaji saying prayers to Gurus ..always the ritual before each class
And a few glimpses of India...
- Lord Ganesha in an air conditioned temple!
- Hotel Chetak was where I stayed on my first 2 stays in Pune…stay tuned to see my latest upgrade!
- The more regular way one receives laundry in India… wrapped in newspaper and neatly tied with string. Just hope the ink from newspaper doesn’t get on clothes!
