"We don't truly know if we have another decade, year, day or hour left.  We can remember to savor and fully live each day in a way that has the most meaning to us.  I personally don't want to be ashamed because of having had fear dictate how I lived my whole life and find myself dying with anguish about all the things I wasn't brave enough to do. I want to live and die knowing that I loved unreservedly, lived wildly, and adventured with a learning mind and passionate creative spirit."  Ana Forrest

Ana is my teacher and primary influence because she has inspired me to go into the dark places, to begin clearing the bad habits and attitudes that were hardening and keeping me numb.  She sets a personal example: living with great integrity and a willingness to move boldly into places that scare you.  Studying with Ana and practicing this powerful style of yoga has changed my life.  I feel compelled to share this with others.
