I also agree that this board is not only a wealth of knowledge but a resource for those of us just starting out in Ashtanga Yoga. Sure, there are plenty of
other sites on the web that do a good job of depicting what Ashtanga yoga is about and why it is such a beautiful practice, but there is nothing like writing
your concern up on this board to have a variety of individuals respond with worthwile and often self-reflected advice. For a long time, I was living in a very
isolated part of Costa Rica. I knew nobody who practiced yoga, let alone Ashtanga. For me, this practice has been a look into my self with a magnifying
glass. And at times I was confused and thought that maybe I was the only one out there that had problems with my practice. Finding this board allowed me to
have a connection outside of my practice, but for my practice. And while freezing the board would still allow us access to the site, I asked a few questions
that I had not found previosly discussed on the board. If someone is willing to spend the energy to keep this board going, I am truly thankful.
This board will be frozen after 30th September

Ok, just because they have so kindly offered, I've promoted Kathryn Clare and tat tvam amasi to moderators of all fora.
If between the three of us we can keep the board clean without any of us feeling overworked, we'll keep going.

That's very good news. Hopefully the board will pick up again. These things always seem to go in circles. Be a shame to let it all go in the year that
Guruji died. Ian

I have not visited in a while and almost cried out loud nooo! when I read the title of the of the posting. I have gotten a lot of information from the site and
some entertainment as well. I also have extra time that could be spent more productively. If there is any thing I can do now to ease the burden of the
moderators let me know. (although I am not the sharpest tack in the box I can learn pretty fast.) I'm sorry this offer comes after the fact but it is a
genuine one. I just wish it could have come at the right time. At any rate let me know how I can help.

I have the time to take on housekeeping if the need arises. There will be times, however, when I'll be away for a couple of weeks. Also, given my age and
physical limitations, I can't be sure what's happening with my practice - I can only take it a week at a time, so no long-term contracts. But if help
is needed for a while, just let me know.

Yeah - thanks to everyone doing the work to keep this up. I don't check in here as much anymore, but it is an awesome resource - both in the wealth of
stuff that has accumulated and in the potential that it has for communication in the present and the future. Would be very sad to see it go away.
so, thanks! |

I've been gone a loonng time, but decided to come back to the board and ashtanga in general. My old name was new2ashtanga but after 5-6 years of practice
(more off than on most of that time), I have decided to come back to both Ashtanga and this board. I'm glad that you all decided to keep it going, it was a
great resource when I knew absolutely nothing about yoga and is that much more valuable now that I'm trying to get back into it. Hoping to balance my love
of capoeira with ashtanga yoga going forward.
