Rodney Yee – if you like short shorts

Just heard about this teacher training program through Urban Zen feaeturing Rodney Yee.

The Urban Zen Yoga Teacher Training Program is an in-depth 200-hour yoga teacher training program that can be completed on its own or taken as a suggested pre-requisite for the Urban Zen Integrative Therapist program. This program begins March 13, 2009, in New York City, and will run through September 2009, one weekend a month, with a break in July.

News to me, the Urban Zen was founded by Donna Karan to create awareness in areas of well-being, preserving cultures and empowering children.  Check it out at www.urbanzen.org.

Sale at Gaiam

Gaiam is having their 6th annual sale featuring items 20-75% off. Thought it was worth mentioning in case any of you Om La La-ers are looking for a good deal. One of the items I came across was this Power Vinyasa Mat Kit.

It comes with a mat (24″W x 72″L x 1/8″D) mapped with guidemarks, a 8′ long strap and Power Yoga DVD sampler with Rodney Yee (10 min). Great for beginners because the mat has that geeky but super helpful line down the middle. Remember in Vira I (Warrior 1) you should line up heel to heel, whereas in Vira II (Warrior 2) you should line up front heel with back arch- I’m sure Rodney will explain…
