~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Volunteers Sought for Stanford Medical Study Looking for female volunteers for a study which examines the activity of the Pelvic Floor Muscles (PFM) which are key to the root lock used in yoga (mulabandha). Read our exclusive article by an expert medical researcher to find out if you are using your Mula Bandha (PFM) correctly, or even to find out what it is (also see Bhavani's Bandha Workshop coming up August 20). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Schedule Changes Mysore Moon (rest) days: July 6 and 21 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AIDS Lifecyle Ride update Back in April our talented teachers Rebecca and Ken led a charity workshop to help raise funds for George Schneider's AIDS ride. He completed the ride last month and here's his report: "The AIDS LIFECycle ride was a success, over $6.8 million with over 1600 riders. I raised a grand total $5,360. Thanks to everyone at YIY who sponsored & supported me. I will be riding next year and Rebecca & Ken look forward to doling another Yoga fundraiser. Thanks, George" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ YiY Hiking Group - Sunday July 17 to Rancho San Antonio Meet at 10am at the studio this Sunday. Rancho San Antonio is a short drive from YiY. Bring sunscreen and a hat. Email Tim at tim@spiralrelease.com (mailto:tim@spiralrelease.com) to get on the YiY hiking mailing list. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote of the Month "Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for" Joseph Addison ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ashtanga Yoga Workshop with Bhavani Maki August 19-21 We are honored to be hosting Bhavani to lead her first workshop at YiY.
