Guest guest Posted February 15, 2001 Report Posted February 15, 2001 I learned ashtanga by David Swenson's videos.. hours and HOURS and many more HOURS of practice. Then I went to a studio and still do. Are you saying I did not really learn ashtanga? If that is the case I will be quite surprised as I do ashtanga every day and have for a few years.<br>Ashtanga, or any form of yoga, is not an elitist form of being. <br>For instance, I learned German from an American whose wife was German. I learned German and went to Germany for college and spoke to everyone is near perfect German for several years.. are you saying that because I didnt learn from a German I did not really know German? <br>Just curious..<br>Owlfire Quote
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2001 Report Posted February 16, 2001 But books & videos CAN be useful. Especially when you're stuck in the boondocks. Quote
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2001 Report Posted February 16, 2001 what do you do if you live where no certified teachers exist ann arbor mi like I do? I want to cultivate a practice so should I not even try the practice Quote
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2001 Report Posted February 17, 2001 Not only ashtanga, anything for that matter must be learnt from a qualified teacher. By the way, how to know that that person is a qua;lified teacher? Quote
