Grace and Strength. the wild thing / camatkarasana

Grace and Strength. the wild thing / camatkarasana

We owe so much to Melissa for her consistent yoga practice, for enthusiastically bringing friends to class, for dedication to yoga.  Rare beauty and kindness both inside and outside.

Camatkarasana is a pose that is widely known as Wild Thing or Rockstar.  Do you see it in the pose?

Alex does one legged crow / eka pada bakasana in the background.  It was not a set up but this came out as one of my very favorite for its grace and strength.

Andy came to us with his brother's recommendation.  He became an amazing backbender (must be in the blood, his brother Robin has a great back bending as well).  This was taken during his going away party one evening for he got a great job in the midwest.  We do miss Andy.

William came to us after learning about us (then just me Jonas).  He told me he would come,  but when I saw him (at my house, yes we started yoga at my loft with a few yogis)  it caught me by surprise.  Ever since then he has been one of more consistent yoga practitioners.   It makes me so happy to see him class after class see him grow.  Keep your great work William.
