| Introduction | i'm in my mid 30's and after almost a decade of teaching high school mathematics i've decided to go back to school. i'm currently finishing a master's degree in pure math and will start a phd program in the learning sciences in the fall. i started practicing yoga in the fall of 2005. my first classes were Bikram classes because i was drawn to the heat in the chicago winter weather. i practiced Bikram for about 2 months and then found Ashtanga. i went to led classes for a few months and then started practicing Mysore style regularly. i love it and haven't looked back. in the future i am interested in purusing my academic studies as well as my yoga studies. i hope to delve further into the philosophy and integration of the eight limbs of yoga. |
