Gwendoline made a tremendous impression on our yoga community at our studio Yoga is Youthfulness when she came to teach a workshop with Lino Miele in November 2001. She was an inspiration not just because of her age but because of her skill in teaching. Her way was always firm and somehow gentle, just like her adjustments. We had been looking forward to her coming again but it is not to be. We will always remember her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote of the Month "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did."
