Articles
1.
In "No Sleep 'Til Mysore," Cara Jepsen writes about her trip to Mysore, South India, to study with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois at the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute. The article is in the current issue of Yoga Chicago at www.yogachicago.com/may02/nosleep.shtml

Bulletin Board
1. Wanted: Ashtanga teacher on the Gold Coast, Australia for permanent classes and/or workshops
This beautiful part of the globe with piles of great surfing beaches amidst a vibrant community for some reason has missed the Ashtanga boat. They've got Iyengar, Shanti, etc., but no real deal Ashtanga. I've been practicing solo (I can't really be the only one on the Coast, can I?) here for almost three years and am constantly asked by friends about Ashtanga, so interest and potential students are here and waiting for YOU. Traveling teachers interested in giving workshops welcome as well. I'll do whatever I can to help you get going. Drop me a line for more info: yogageek@yahoo.com. Thanks, Sue.

2. Teachers and Studios: Help create the definitive online asana index
The online asana index at YogaDancer.com is a growing compilation of photos and descriptions of asanas—particularly the Ashtanga Yoga form of asanas. YogaDancer.com invites you to assist in creating its definitive, online yoga resource. They are seeking photos, illustrations, narratives, articles and other information that would demonstrate the asanas and their variations. In turn, they are happy to provide links back to studios, workshops, teacher trainings and retreats. Visit www.yogadancer.com/Asanas.shtml to see the gallery and contact Designs@YogaDancer.com if you would like to submit your work. YogaDancer.com would like to thank the many yoga teachers who have generously contributed photos and narratives.
