Mysore Classes in Bangkok 2012 - New Location - FIT Studio
Please read the following carefully.
Mysore classes in central Bangkok, with KPJAYI Authorised Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Nigel Marshall will continue in 2012. Commencing Wednesday, January 4th, in a new location:
FIT Studio, Mahatun Plaza, Phloen Chit.
Classes with Nigel will only be for three months, that is January, February and March, because he will be returning to the UK. So please make them most of this opportunity!
Classes are Monday to Friday only. Times are 7:00 - 9:30. Early-birds may start their practice at 6:30.
No practice on Moondays.
Beginners welcome - please book in advance.
The studio has mats available for student use. You may also leave your personal mat at the studio, but at your own risk.
Please note : The studio does NOT provide towels. However, the studio is offering a cleaning service for your towels, at a nominal fee.
Please also note : Nigel will be away between January 11th and January 26th. During this period, students with an established Ashtanga practice may come to the studio, and one of the senior students will try to be there everyday to oversee the class.
From January 4th until January 26th, the fee for the class will be by donation only - pay what you like. Teachers will be unpaid during this period, and all profits will go to The Red Cross in Thailand.
Fees thereafter TBC.

Always in our minds we should think - I don't know anything. When we think we know everything - that is the end of our yoga practice.

When I say, be a “Religious Person”, I do not mean religion in the sense of Hindu, or Moslem, or Christian etcetera. No, all of the religions have become twisted. Religion really means, what are the ways and rules to be followed for the benefit of all mankind.
