Asana is more than just physical posture. We

in awareness and harmonised with the breath.
This workshop will use the tools of meditative awareness
and work strongly with the breath to give you a broader perspective
on Asana beyond just the physical posture.
We will explore :
Meditation : both guided and silent, drawing
inspiration from the Buddhist tradition
Pranayama : discovering the full potential
of the breath and its benefits
Asanas :
Day 1 : Standing your ground (standing)
Holding your ground (balancing + arm balance)
Day 2 : Opening your heart (Back Bend)
Rediscovering gravity (inversions)

Testimonials
I've been taking a Yoga Intensive with Sandra, her peaceful energy
is truely come from inside out. when people teach you from their
heart, you definitely feel it :) she is absolutely wonderful!
Boom Chappell (Sirilak Samanasak) Chiang Mai, May 2010
Dear
Sandra,
Your explanation below is much appreciated. Thank you. I finally
signed up for the Intermediate intensive, and I'm very glad I didn't
miss it. It gave me a good opportunity to practice yoga with more
strenuous efforts and to get myself exposed to new experience/ new
people.
Through this email, I wanted to let you know that I have realized
significant and unprecedented progress after regular practice with
you over the past 7 weeks, and I am immesely satisfied with the
result. My confidence and consciousness gained from this yoga immersion
with you have positively changed my life which apparently seems
to be calmer, livelier, and more mindful.
Thank you for paying close attention to every student in the class,
assisting and correcting the postures when needed, and for creating
intimate and relaxing learning environment. I'm very grateful for
this and I'm very lucky to have met you.
If you ever come to Thailand for teaching again, please keep me
informed on your schedule. I do hope our paths will cross again.
Safe travels Sandra,
Paew - Chokniti Khoosuwan, Chiang Mai 11 September 2009
I wanted to say a big thank you for guiding us through our yoga
pratice in the 2nd week of Rebecca's fasting retreat. I really enjoyed
it and was one of the daily highlights for me. You were always so
positive and motivational and encouraging. Along with your lovely
smile, it was very much appreciated. Thank you.
Emma Clark, March 2009
Then,
in a pavilion above the gardens where the birds are still singing
their morning song, it is Yoga with Tara. Her voice is soothing
in low registers and a dusky French accent from an old movie. In
her long, lithe, lean, perfectly conditioned body, she walks like
a deer, but with two feet, light and firm upon the earth. She speaks
in English, murmurs in ancient Sanskrit.
We do the sun salute and I feel the bones in my spine roll out,
one at a time. Heart pounding, muscles shaking, I struggle with
the difficult asanas (postures) and realise how much more strenuous
yoga is than aerobics.
Tara has a, quietly joyous and gentle way with the art of yoga
which makes the struggle pleasurable. I do not think of Tara as
a woman, more like a running animal, her long stream of hair tied
back into a tail; and her unadorned face reflecting the colt-like
nature of her body. Later, I find out through Tara’s web site
(www.Tara-Yoga-Now.com) about her early encounter with the Dalai
Lama and the decades of patient study and practice with great masters
in India, Nepal, Thailand and Bali that lie behind her exquisite
form and tranquil mind.
Tara
was great, very professional and always present and prepared. She
emanates self respect that instills respect from others and a sense
of trustworthiness in her expertise

in the Oman Observer – July 2008

We’ve loved this experience.

Dear Sandra, It has been a real pleasure being with you in this
time. You are really a very good yoga teacher. I enjoyed (and suffered!)
Maria in Goa February 2007.
It’s been great for me to build up some muscles + know that
despite the tiredness I often feel I can be well + feel healthy
!
A great start in the mornings + a different way of seeing the world
from the headstand !.
Meditation retreat in Goa February 2007
Dear Sandra, Your soft and gentle character is very special and
very precious. Also your smiles reached right to my heart. Your
teaching is prepared and done with so much care and you feel what
the students need.
Thanks you so much.
Nicola in Goa February 2007
Dear Sandra, Thank you very much for your teachings. You made us
work but also you put a lot of energy and effort into your classes.
You always had a well-prepared programme for us, corrected us and
gave us lots of warm smiles. All the best to you.
Nicola
Sandra, Thanks for getting me back on the road in good shape, maybe
see you in Thailand. Namaste. James, in meditation retreat
in Goa, February 2007
Dear Sandra,
The yoga clases were, for me, some thing I’ve never done,
but I enjoyed very much. I may suppose the long time and effort
you have put in this, with love and compassion for health and life.
Thank you for encouraging all of us.
