  1. Wish I could take your class. Never thought of the femur forward issue.

  2. Hi Anonymous! Thanks for your kind comment, but I'm certainly not the only yoga teacher in the world teaching about setting the femur heads more towards the posterior plane of the body. However, the clarity of my expression of these ideas may be quite specific to me because of my combined experience as a dancer, a physics student, and a long-time, professional communicator (please see my 12/24/11 post for more on that). If you contact me via e-mail (shari@shrishari.com), and let me know where you live, I can hopefully help to guide you to some teachers nearby (or who may travel to your part of the world) who can provide similar information, expressed through their unique perspectives, of course. We're all looking at the same basic human body construction, but different teachers with different training, different yogic philosophies, and different communication skills will present it with a profound amount of diversity, some of which will speak to you and some of which won't. I'm happy to learn that my expression here opened a new door of possibility and understanding for you. It's all part of what makes yoga so wonderful! Namaste...
