Yoga as Self-Transformation by Joel Kramer

I recently read "Yoga as a Self-Transformation" by Joel Kramer. This article was published in Yoga Journal May/June 1980. For anyone who is interested in yoga, who want to know more about how to approach yoga, this is a great article. I love how this article covers the mind, body, and spirit in his approach of yoga. Kramer really does a fabulous job of describing the physiological aspects of yoga. This article has given me a profound respect for yoga, and ones own practice.

Teaching Yoga

I had the opportunity to teach yoga to my roommates and friends. There were a total of three. Stacey and Kelsey are my roommates, and Jordan is a young man who lives in the apartment below mine. I am grateful for their willingness to participate in me learning to teach yoga. I taught them three basic moves. The sitting pose, the child pose, and Ujjayii yoga breath. Stacey has already been practicing yoga for some time. Jordan served a mission in Korea, so he learned and gained some basic flexibility. Kelsey has taken a few classes so she has some basic knowledge. They did great. While teaching I felt so calm. I really enjoyed teaching them. I know I am on the right path.
