Don't come to this class if you just want a workout (although you will of course still get a workout). You will get kindness and heart-expanding joy. You will find a community. She combines expertise in yoga with love, radiance, and insight. It's the total mind-body experience. Over the years, her classes have shifted -- sometimes taking a turn into more spiritual components, sometimes more of a focus on breath, etc. -- but always in a way that is fun, that is challenging, and that leaves me smiling and full.

So I tried different physical activities - yoga spoke to me the most. It's wasn't just a workout at a gym, it was bigger than that.

As sad as it was to lose my local Ananda community, I had the chance to move to the Ananda Community in Mountain View and become part of the most dynamic, centered, compassionate, self-aware group of people I have ever known. I love the opportunities to be of service to others as they find their spiritual path. The Ananda Temple is not really the physical structure on the corner of El Camino and College. The congregation of Truth seekers who come together to serve, meditate, practice yoga, and have fun...those people are the true Ananda Temple. I love the diversity. I love Sunday Services. I love the yoga classes. I love the classes on how to be happy in a chaotic world. I love being in a space with others where I can close my eyes, be still, and feel the presences of the Divine in me and all around.
