I lived there for a year after college, and Celeste was my very first Ashtanga teacher. I may still be in love with her! She was such a humble, loving, direct, and intelligent teacher. And, yes, she is perhaps one of the tiniest people I know. Isn't her strength phenomenal? Such an inspiration. I haven't seen or heard from her in 6 years, so it's truly a gift reading a bit about her on your blog. Thank you! Thank you so much for your blog posts re: Ashtanga in Singapore.

Karen, what is Celeste's background and how does she know VBG? As for the overusing shoulder thing, you have strong shoulders from your years in rock climbing and it seems to me that should be an asset in your practice.

Thanks for sharing. Both sit bones on D is the standard method of teaching and adjustment. But there is at least one certified teacher that doesn't do it in his practice, although he is able to. I'll try tomorrow to see if I can set up with both sitting bones down. Cheers, Arturo Hi Karen
