About
I began sending out monthly e-mail notices in September 2005 to people who had attended class at the Shala and who had given us their e-mail addresses. The overt reason was to let people know that I was doing a once a month Led Primary class, preceded by a talk. The list began at around 180 addresses and has grown a bit since. I received positive responses, and suggestions that I set up a blog, so here it is. Before February 2006 they weren’t worth too much, so I’ll spare you those. Also, these emails conveyed mundane Shala information, as well as discourses; I have snipped out the former unless they offer some entertainment value, i.e.: “The Sunday afternoon class will continue after a two week hiatus on May 4th at 4 pm…” That’s boring so I snipped it. This is a blog, so it reads chronologically beginning with the newest one, but the talks pick up threads from their predecessors, and I’m trying to make the whole thing into a single piece, more or less. I turned this into a “real” blog in February 2007, thanks to my student and friend, Matthew Brook. Before that it was just a series of letters patched together in HTML on our website.
A good introduction to all of this can be heard on this interview with Lara Cestone at yogapeeps.com.
