1/2 Year Update



On A Whim in Nicaragua started in December 2015 looking like this.........
 



I like a challenge and that includes learning another language and culture, being an entrepreneur for the first time and so many other challenges that get lost in the mix.  It's quite a change of lifestyle and one that I am grateful and privileged to be able to try.  I am not wealthy and therefore and growing this studio, gallery, pool and event venue organically.  A rapid pace towards my goal while enticing is not what I am ready for I don't think and so I find much accomplishment in doing the work and seeing even small changes happen.

It will take some time but check out the changes in only 7 months....

700 Hours of Learning....start now!

Here goes I am embarking on a two year adventure into myself and the world around me through yoga, massage, coaching and other modalities.  With this journey comes a great reading list and journaling.  This is not something I have ever been able to keep up, with much regularity, as you can see from my posts here.....lol One day I may succeed as I continue to practice for the next two years. I have received the reading list and am happy to have just finished Yoga Sequencing:  Designing Transformative Yoga Classes by Mark Stephens.  This book was suggested to me and for obvious reason, it is incredibly informative.  As a beginning yoga teacher it provided great pictures and foundations for infinite classes that I am now able to create.  It will continue to be on my bookshelf as an excellent reference,and I could reread it still getting useful information a second or third time.  Now I will delve further into this genre of reading with Yoga Anatomy by L...
