KALI RAY AND THE MOON DAY
The Kali Ray workshop this weekend was rather amazing.
The sequences felt GOOD on my back, which had been in great pain before class. They are all about systematically moving the spine from top to bottom or vice-versa. The movements are controlled, like tai chi, and feminine. I don't know much about different types of yoga, but her system seemed to include the props and long holds of Iyengar and Yin Yoga, the vinyasa (movement linked with breath) of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, the multilevel options of Dharma Yoga and the spinal / pranic focus of Kundalini Yoga (not that I know anything about the last).
PLUS there was a focus on pranayama, concentration and meditation.
Wow.

MOON DAY
I keep messing up the full moon day. Apparently it wasn't yesterday, as I told some students. Apparently it's not today, as it says on many calendars. Apparently it's tomorrow (Tuesday) at 1:25 AM central time.
Sorry for any confusion.
That said, the full moon is meant to be very auspicious for meditation.
The moon days never align in NYC shalas anyway. Some had it yesterday. Some have it today.
