A little over a year ago, I uprooted myself from a caustic living environment as a self-preservation strategy. Obviously, I needed a change, but I was only vaguely aware of the extent of work I should expect of myself now that I was free of the source of my recurrent psychological trauma. Since I was also suffering from a painful and fairly new...
Yoga Awareness is the real deal!!! Living in NYC and as a former Ashtanga practitioner, I have tried them all and was used to the “more, more, more” approach with both yoga and myself. I can wholeheartedly say that Ted and his teachings are the most authentic that I have come across. It was a true gift, that helped me to slow down, listen to myself and surrender...
It's amazing to feel how much my body have changed with just 5 classes! Thank you! Tedd.
We sure appreciate you and the Great Yoga, and your teachings. We do not taking you or the teachings lightly. Here is my testimonial: It's effecting my whole life. I am breathing deeper, watching my breath more often. The class when its over takes me into a more slowed down relaxed pace that I take into my workplace. I have been doing different...
For me, coming to yoga is like brushing my teeth. It something I do that is second nature. For this I am grateful!
When I keep each movement within each breath, and my asana is skillfully guided to a continuous balance of ease and effort, then I am able to settle into a prolonged practice. In pranayama, my mind then deeply relaxes into its natural state and turns its attention to the dharma.
Even with my disturbances with nasal blockage and shortness of breath, I can go deep into my practice and feel the benefit. At the end of the practice I feel peaceful and regenerated.
Ted, today during my practice I finally found the piece that's been missing. The breath starts the movement and the breath is the movement. Thank you! Jean Muldoon
Dear Ted, thank you very much for your relaxing and yet very intense class. I cannot figure out how you manage to watch 4 people at the same time... because I felt almost like the same intenseness as the private class. Hearing some one else's breathing sound also helped me to move in a stable manner. I have never realized how many times I breathe every day!
Practicing yoga with Ted and Pam has helped me keep my body, especially my back, in good condition for all the time I recently spent on an airplane. I made a one-week trip to see my new grandson in Michigan, then went to Oregon the following weekend to attend my college mentor's funeral. I was on the plane for 3 weekends, and of course did my stretches and breathing...
