Teachers:I love taking classes, it’s such a treat for me. There are so many good teachers out there and here are a few of my favorites:
Rusty Wells… check him out at www.rustywells.com. The best, best classes I’ve ever taken. You get to sing, laugh, sweat and find some bliss. He teaches in San Francisco, worth the drive which I call my Pilgrimage.
Laura Camp… she teaches a super fun astanga-based class at Monkey Yoga Shala in Oakland. www.monkeyyoga.com Her classes are challenging,energetic and a little bit silly. She does creative partner work, strength challenges and cool tricks. Also, her students are just a fun, urban group of crazies. I love them. I want to be Laura when I grow up.
Kelli Barnett… by far the most creative teacher I have ever met. I never know what I’ll get when I step into her classroom and I am always sore. She’s fun and incredible. Her schedule is posted at www.livemoreyoga.com
Danelle Lateur… Danelle trained with Ana Forest. I had taken several classes with AF teachers before and I had the impression that the style of yoga was gentle. Ha! Danelle does her own blend of Forest yoga and flow and I love it. Did I say I love it? I love it after class. Danelle’s classes are incredibly challenging and she has the ability to push me when I want to give in. She also is one of the best at giving adjustments that I’ve ever experienced… and she always give a lot of them. She teaches at The Yoga Company on Monday nights. www.theyogacompany.com
Tara Beane… Tara teaches flow at the Yoga Company. Her classes are challenging and she has a lot of knowledge in the Astanga system. She plays fun hip music and her sequencing is impeccable. My body feels great after her classes.
I really like Stephen Cope’s “Yoga and the Quest for the True Self”. It is an awesome read.
Thanks for the tip on Laura Camp, she was incredibly fun and vibrant and I can’t wait to go back. She is so happy and enthusiastic, much like one of my very favorite yoga teachers, YOU!
Lisa,
I just got Yoga and the Quest for the True Self.. thank you for the recommendation. It’s fascinating, I love it.
Julie… I’m not surprised you loved Laura. She is one of the best. It’s really not all that far and definitely worth the drive. We’ll carpool!
I love your site!
