Now that I am officially no longer employed at Sports Club, I wanted to say a proper thank you to all of you. Don't worry. No diatribes coming. . .
To those of you who suffered through my first class ever two Decembers ago and stuck with me, thank you. Your support helped me gain my feet and work out my first kinks without becoming overwhelmed.
To those of you who had just started practicing with me before I left, thank you for opening your minds to something new. May your practice grow. To those of you who shared personal feelings and experiences with me, thank you. Your trust has made me a better teacher.
To those of you who threw yourself into your breathing practice, thank you. Each class was a beautiful thing surrounded by your breath.
I am not just saying these things. Teaching for me is a gift, both one I give to my students and one I receive back. It is not a job. To have had students like you has made the last 20 months a constant learning process and a constant joy and reward. Thank you for sharing your lives with me.
I do hope you will continue to stay in touch. I will be working closely with Jennifer (who is taking over my SportsClub classes) through December, at least. Her first class is this Wednesday, so please support her as she grows.
She will be filling her own shoes, not mine. Just as everyone has a different path to follow, so every teacher teaches from their own heart.
