    The Linga as a Symbol of CreationThe ancient Hindu scripture "Linga Purana" says that the foremost Linga is devoid of smell, color, taste, etc., and is spoken of as Prakriti, or Nature itself. In the post-Vedic period, the Linga became symbolical of the generative power of Lord Shiva. The Linga is like an egg and represents the Brahmanda (the cosmic egg). Linga signifies that the creation is affected by the union of Prakriti and Purusha, the male and the female powers of Nature. It also signifies Satya, Jnana, and Ananta—Truth, Knowledge, and Infinity. lyrics https://greenmesg.org/stotras/shiva/lingashtakam.php

    Elaine is a relatively new yoga teacher and long term yoga student. "I live in Edinburgh and have done for almost 20 years - but as my accent might give away, I am originally from Northern Ireland. After years of juggling my practice (and then teaching) around a busy job, I recently took the plunge and am now opting for a quieter, simpler life - practicing and teaching yoga by the sea. I am usually to be found in the late Mysore room; though I love to practice Vinyasa/Gentle Vinyasa and Restorative classes too. I came relatively late to yoga. I only started practicing Ashtanga consistently in my late twenties and really delving into my practice in my mid thirties. I had never loved exercise; I'd tried many classes (some disastrously!) but was drawn to the variety, pace and meditative quality of yoga. I was always quite flexible; though learned the heard way that building strength and learning to tune into my body would be my greatest challenges and biggest gifts in safely progressing with my yoga journey."Clare Fulton is a yoga teacher and Yoga Health Coach who specialises in helping people live vibrantly in their body and mind, using the wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda.

    John Scott has been practicing Ashtanga yoga since 1987. He was introduced to the practice by early Ashtanga yoga pioneers Derek Ireland and Radha Warell at the legendary Skyros/Practice Place in Greece. John is greatly respected and loved by his students (of whom Amy Hughes is one).John's Teaching: John still practices and explores the techniques of the counted method of Ashtanga passed to him and is continually discovering new meanings to the gems of wisdom that Pattabhi Jois left for his students to pass on. He connects to yoga practitioners with refreshing insight into the practice on a physical, anatomical and spiritual levels and is constantly improvising new and unique ways to engage and inspire practitioners with ashtanga and the counted method.John Worldwide: In John's mission to pass on Pattabhi Jois' Counted Method he travels the World literally Counting – he learns to count in the national language of his host (usually his host is a graduate of John's teacher training) to bridge the cultural ‘gap' (“mind that gap because therein lies extra ordinary wisdom”) and thus he draws the community in to the shared language of yoga – Sanskrit. From John's world adventure, sharing Jois' teachings, an ever growing International Yoga Community is blossoming.
