Santa Catalina

As of Jan 30th, I have moved into the town of Santa Catalina. It's a small place, about 10K from where I was living the two months prior.
My bicycle has been given a rest from the continual back and forth of living in Lagatero, out in the sticks (est pop: 100 persons, 50 chickens, 25 dogs, and 10 alligators) to the bustling metropolis of Santa Catalina; (est pop: 400-500 ). The folks at Hibiscus Garden just didn't have enough work to keep me there. We mutually decided it was best to end our initial agreement of me staying there until mid March.
For a fleeting moment, I entertained thoughts of traveling for 6 weeks until Janey arrives in the beginning of March. That was before my friend Michelle, owner of "La Buena Vida", and fellow yogini, asked me to stay in Catalina and design/teach a series of yoga classes with her, it was an easy choice.
I have committed myself to the practice and study of yoga while I'm here. I am teaching 3 or 4 classes a week, taking another 3 classes each week from her, and expanding my own practice on the luxury of her yoga deck in the treetops.
It's really a beautiful thing to have dedicated myself to this immersion. We are organizing a women's yoga retreat in Santa Fe, Panama Feb. 23,24, 25. It's a mountain town about 3 hours north of here where we are going to spend 2 sessions a day teaching basic yoga techniques as an introduction for beginners to the practice, with time for a long mountain hike one day.
Blessings from Panama.
Om, shanti.
