Yoga Bloggers
If I posted your blog here it is because 1) well, you are obviously a yogi/yogini AND 2) you blog about yoga. Some of you are my dearest friends already.
It is always a delight when I come across yoga bloggers because I derive so much pleasure from reading different experiences and added knowledge from the advice of long-time practitioners. I hope exchanges with all of you will also improve my own knowledge, and practice, of yoga.
If you have a yoga blog and I still have not found you, do leave me a comment here with your URL. Namaste.

About Me
Yoga Girl from www.yogalifestyle.com
Namaste!
I’m Jane, a Filipina from Manila, Philippines. I practise hatha vinyasa yoga and continue to reap so many health and spiritual benefits from it.
Through this blog I hope to:
* chronicle my journey as a yogini-come-lately *
* include the different styles of yoga available in the Philippines
* provide the location of yoga studios *
* write about the local instructors *
* point you to yoga accessories and books locally available *
* talk with you about anything on yoga *
I will always be a work in progress but I hope that you will journey with me and share your own yoga experiences.
You can reach me at <yogajane@ymail.com>

Asana of the Week
Krounchasana (Heron Pose)
Benefits:
* Stretches the hamstrings * Stimulates the abdominal organs and heart *
Caution:
Avoid if you have menstruation.
If you have any serious knee or ankle problems, avoid the bent leg position in this pose unless you have the assistance of an experienced instructor. Instead sit with the bent leg like the one in this picture:

Jane: Hi Teresa. I missed the Manila Mala Project as I was not feeling well but I sure blogged about it to let others know. This is such a wonderful thing you are doing. I came across your blog and already linked you up. Hope you can visit Manila more often! Namaste.
Hi Jane!
Nice to meet you – thanks for sending me a note! I’m glad to keep expanding our online yoga community. And if you or your youngest need any tips on living in China, be sure to let me know!
Cheers,
Kiki
Jane:
Hi Kiki. Thank you for the link up. Any time you are in this part of the world and decide to pass Manila, let me know!
Hi Jane, is it possible to add me to your blog list?
Kindly let me know. Thanks!
Jane: Added you already!
Hi Jane!
I wanted to share with you a yoga animation that I created at Mushygushy.com. It is a great e-card website that allows you to upload photos from the web, cut and paste heads onto animated figures and customize the facial complexion to match the skin tone of the character. There are tons of cards to choose from and its free! In this animation, for an example I used two celebrities that are known for their skill in yoga. I hope you enjoy!

thanks for the link love!
Jane,
I’m glad to have found your blog. Can we link up? I am from Malaysia.
Lets us spread the spirit of yoga.
Namaste
Hi Jane.
I’m Liza Jane Jardiolin and I have just moved to Iloilo. Once I settle in, I hope to lead a donation based class here in Pavia. I have tried several forms of hatha yoga and now am deepening my practice of Ashtanga Yoga. I was practicing with Bryan Kest in Santa Monica, CA before making my move here.
I am a relative infant to yoga, having been lucky enough to practice more than a year now and renew my high raw lifestyle. The Philippines is an amazing place to be. I look forward to hearing and connect with fellow yogis like you.
@Liza Jane – Oh how wonderful to find an Ilongga! I was born in Iloilo, you know.
Let me know where you can be found once you’re set up. I have a friend who used to do yoga but hasn’t done so since relocating back to Iloilo.
Namaste.
Salaam Jane,
I would like to thank you for “introducing” some davao yoga instructors to me. It was through your blog that I knew of a Jon Cagas yoga seminar here last year. Since then I have renewed my erratic (since our only Davao yoga teacher left for Afghanistan, some yoga buddies and I were left orphans)yoga practice and have since been healthier.
My blog talks about my work as an Islam Mindanao peace advocate, a mother and my yoga journey. You can find me at http://www.rashidsmom.com.
Again Salaam for your help.
@Sarah – You are most welcome. I will add you up on my list of yoga bloggers. Namaste.
Hi Sarah,
We have recently opened a yoga studio in Davao City and through your website I hope to reach those that have been badly searching for a home to practice yoga in our city.
I would like to invite everyone to come visit South Studio, check out our website southstudio.com.ph or call us at 234.4042
Thank you and Namaste
Tobi
I meant to write Jane… Hi Jane…
Hi Jane,
It would be great if you could add mine as well.

@Patricia – Oh how nice to find another yoga blogger. Your blog is beautiful! I hope you can come to Manila one day. Look me up! Namaste.
Hi Jane!
DO you know any yoga instructors willing to handle classes in QC?
@Pearl - For private classes or regular classes?
