Dear Dear Loka Yoga Community,
After
much careful deliberation, I have decided to pass the directorship of
Loka Yoga on to Dari Love Sylvia in August of 2014. Dari has been my
long-time student and a devoted teacher at Loka for the 7 years of the
studio's existence. She will bring a wonderful new energy to your yoga
community and practice and I have every confidence in her ability to
keep Loka vital. I know she will continue to keep it the very special
and unique place that it has come to be.
It
is critical as a teacher to also remain a student and to continue
expanding and growing in the practice. To that end I have purchased a
building in the Dimond District that will house a more traditional yoga shala, or school of yoga. The new space called Vati can accommodate 12 students at a time, and I am intending on having applications for Vati students
available in July. There will be a four month commitment where students
agree to come twice a week. In this way I will continue teaching yoga
and honor what I know I must do to grow as both teacher and student.
Change
can be difficult. Change is also thrilling and brings about unexpected
joys. Please support both Dari and me in this wonderful transition of
instruction from loving hand to loving hand. And above all, I extend
heartfelt gratitude to the Loka community for all that we have shared
together over the years.
