Meeting the other aspirants

I certainly was not expecting to fit the usual demographic of yoga teachers in the west. In India, ALL our teachers matched my demographic in terms of sex and age (with suitable variance for allowable for age). I hadn’t given that much thought before and I still don’t think those factors impacted my experience to any tangible extent, other than a direct appreciation for the people that were involved. I would hope that demographics wouldn’t affect me because I was determined to learn from inspiring and knowledgeable yogis, so the choice of school was pertinent, not the age and sex of the teachers. But I suppose they demonstrated the cultural difference in attitude towards yoga between westerners and Indians. The more notable male involvement by Indians helped me refine my own communication methods and hopefully, influenced my teaching style for the better. I had wanted to receive this type of teaching as I got more serious about my yoga practice yet this experience dissolved those expectations, and achieved something else altogether. T

I was expecting there to be more females than males taking the course, and this was the case. We had 5 men and 12 ladies (about) on the 200-hour course and a smaller group taking the 300-hour course from mid-September to mid-October. Together, we got along beautifully as a group and continue to celebrate the shared success of completing the course. The physical body stores emotions and memories and the intensity of opening-up* can take you through the experiences that caused stress. Or that is how I experienced it, and I know that others flowed through emotional moments that belonged totally to them. The support that was given liberally and evenly throughout the experience was done with kindness, by good souls.

After paying the cab driver, I checked in and met Uncle on the Tuesday night that I arrived. He would be entitled as a facilities manager in western parlance, but Uncle was the perfect name/title for him and it was what everyone knew him by. I had to be quick as dinner had been served in the dining hall and I was feeling a strange mix of hunger and excitement in my gut, after 20 hours of travel. I dropped my bags in my room and rushed down to find a table of 10 or so people, finishing dinner and chatting. A few of them had started their 300-hour course, which ran consecutively but started a day before and finished 2 days after. I was chatty and inquisitive while doing my best to remember as many names as I could. I loved the experience and hoped that I had made a good impression, knowing that we were together for what would be a very challenging month.

Later, when I went to get some hot water from the dining hall, there were some more people eating dinner and that was when I met Elena. I remember the first few words we said to each other along with every moment since. Seldom, does meeting someone move you so much. Thunderbolt city had a few new taxpayers. This meeting also made for numerous other tales and experiences that might fit a separate blog more appropriately – but not likely. However, the significance of that moment deserves to be on all the blogs.

The night soon ended and although I had made some introductions, I was no wiser to who I was sharing this time with. The next day would be more informative as we partook in our opening ceremony after which, a group of us headed toward “The Waterfall” for the first time. It was stiflingly hot and humid and the idea of cooling down in a Himalayan mountain pool was attractive to a group of around 8 of us. We finished lunch and headed right, out the gates of AYM and up the hill, to find the pools formed by the mountain stream. We called our spot – The Waterfall – but it was more of a waist deep pool of flowing Himalayan water. Only about 10 or 15 minutes from the school, but the incline was quite steep, so the fresh mountain water was needed to cool off, urgently.

It was during this group outing that I first felt connected with the people on the course. We all shared stories that illuminated some of the personal motivations for yoga, many of which involved someone with cancer and it was apparent that the reasons we had individually, for developing our practice were quite aligned and this brought quick connections between us. This type of course is attractive to a diverse group of people but often with similar experiences and feelings, which helped stir my awareness with attention toward parallels and an aura of equality among us. I think that the mutual respect created on that day helped group cohesion throughout the course and I remember it fondly. We made (me especially) bad yoga jokes, to get into the spirit of things and jumped into the biggest pool we could find, that came to be known as “The Waterfall”. If I could be there now, I would be.

All my new connections impressed me with the charm that they demonstrated, and they practiced yoga beautifully. I’m sure many of them will go onto become excellent teachers of yoga and the world is a better place for the effort and commitment they applied to a physically and mentally demanding course. The lessons were pure and the group worked diligently. I knew that meeting these people was going to be a blessing and I miss them, so I shall wish them the very best! This blog is dedicated to meeting y’all and the honour. x

Opening-up reference: Stretching out the blockages in the body to restore natural movement capabilities. Allowing your circulatory and energy systems to flow more effectively, improving overall health. Blockages are attributed to activity and stresses. In my experience, blockages can be caused by stressful situations which I felt were stored in my hamstrings. Deep challenging postures during the course sent my mind was flashing through many of those stressful occasions while I also vaguely remember tensing those muscles on my seat. The hips also store emotions and the shoulders and neck can be quite reactive to stressful situations, as well.
