Guest guest Posted June 12, 2001 Report Posted June 12, 2001 Hi ya..I am fairly new to yoga (practicing for about 4 mos now) and ran into a technical prob..lol..my Richard Freeman video broke and I thought I'd ask if ya'll think I should just replace it as it's a superb one or is there an even better video I could use??<br><br>Thanks!<br>Robin M.<br>"bobbi-thang" Quote
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2001 Report Posted June 12, 2001 I also am new, practicing for about 4 months. I was working from the Richard Freeman tape but have sought a certified teacher. It is my feeling that the Richard Freeman's tape put me in a good position for the class, but it is absolutely clear to me that if you can find a good teacher it makes all the difference. I've looked at other video tapes, ie David Swenson and Ashtanga Yoga First Series - w/ KPJ. The latter is not instructional but terrific for watching the flow. Between David Swenson and Richard Freeman, I have a stronger feeling for Freeman as an instructor. As a fellow newbie, I wish you luck and highly suggest you get a teacher if you can. The simple subtleties I've picked up just from the short time I've been going to Mysore style classes is truly remarkable...for lack of a better word. Quote
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2001 Report Posted June 12, 2001 Thanks so much for your input!!! Was beginning to think I was being ignored (wahhhh ;o). I think i will probably re-order that Richard Freeman video. Can you tell me where I may find a listing of Mysore-trained teachers?? (My sense is that Swenson is probably not hard on the eyes however as a teacher but I digress.. giggle!)<br><br>Thanks again! And my best to you!<br>Robin M. Quote
