Yoga Teacher at Age 12: A Fan's Reaction

Posted: at 11:14 am


without comments

Ram Das 'Brahmachari', A 12-year-old boy, has landed a position as a yoga instructor at St Peter's College in Agra, India. Ram Das is proficient at and able to perform 300 different yoga poses (asanas).

"Students would be more at ease learning the yoga asanas from somebody of their own age. He will formally join the school from July this year," said Ram Das's father and principal at St Peter's Coolege, John Ferreira.

I think having a yoga teacher the same age as the students is an excellent idea, and agree with Mr. Ferreira. I believe the students will look at yoga in a better light with a peer teaching yoga rather than someone older who is looked at as merely an instructor. Besides, with the skills this 12-year-old has, he has earned every right to teach others to perform yoga.

Yoga is a great practice that everyone of every age can acquire benefits from. Perhaps this will set a new trend worldwide and not just in India. It would be great to see P.E. classes in the United States and elsewhere lead or co-hosted by students skilled in yoga.

Of course, here in the U.S. we complain about so much when it comes to the public school systems. In fact, in 2008 a pair of high school teachers in N.Y. taught yoga to their students to aid in alleviating stress and a number of religious leaders and parents showed their discontentment with this being done by stating that yoga breaks the barrier between church and state. I disagree highly with this mindset as yoga is not a religion so long as it is taught in a manner that does not bring religion into the picture. Yoga consists of performing poses that help to relax, stretch and strengthen muscles. One may as well say that it is wrong to have children warm up before physical education if they are that narrow minded to believe such a thing.

To sum it up, what an accomplishment to be a yoga instructor at the age of 12. This young boy is an inspiration for others to reach for the stars and go after their dreams. I wish more young people would set such high goals in life. Too many are more concerned with video games, dating and hanging out with friends. Not to say those things are bad in and of themselves, but children, especially teenagers should start thinking about their future and deciding what they want to do with their lives when they reach adulthood.

Tyler Pilates instructor helps Josh Hamilton prepare for big season

Posted: April 20, 2012 at 1:12 pm

TYLER, TX (KLTV) -

A Pilates and dance instructor at Balance studio in Tyler, Michelle Heines has never been a big baseball fan.

"I did know who Josh Hamilton was," said Heines with a laugh.

The all star outfielderdidn't know Heines. The TexasRangers did. When the Rangersneeded help with new Pilate machines, theteam called Heines up.

"The trainers were pretty sure they could do it," said Heines. "Then they said 'Oh you just come back and do it.'"

With Hamilton coming off another injury riddled season, Heines had to sell the Rangers star on Pilates.

"He (Hamilton)needed to change something," said Heines. "He wasn't sure what he was going to change but he was pretty sure he liked the idea of Pilates. I had him do one exercise. The exercise he did about killed him. I said 'This is just one exercise.'"

The former American LeagueMVP came around asking Heines to work with him without throughout the offseason.

Heines was even invited to work with Hamilton at spring training in Arizona.

"Whensome tourists were walking through the batting cages, we were working," said Heines. "He (Hamilton) said 'Hey, if I hit 40 home runs, tell everyone it was the Pilates.' I said no, 'Tell everyone it was the Pilates instructor.'"

MILEY SKULL-DRESS! Miley Cyrus shows off her legs in a short skull design dress as she goes to Pilates class. The Disney starlet showed off her dark side in the macabre dress, dark boots, and round sunglasses. (Pacific Coast News)more pics Miley Cyrus (Pacific Coast News) Miley Cyrus often refers to herself as clumsy and accident-prone, and she lived up to that reputation Monday evening.After her regular Pilates work-out, Cyrus returned to her Toluca Lake home for an intimate dinner with her mom, grandma, and boyfriend Liam Hemsworth.

Unfortunately, the mellow evening was interrupted when a knife found its way into Miley's finger. Hemsworth drove his lady love to the E.R., and she was taken care of promptly. Miley left the hospital bandaged and still bleeding, but 'tis just a flesh wound. She'll recover quickly. She just needs to let someone else do the chopping in the future.

As for her earler work-out, Miley exited her Pilates studio in a rock 'n' roll style romper with a skull print and utilitarian black boots.

Pilates helps give golfers flexibility, strength

Posted: at 1:12 pm


without comments

As the world's greatest golfers competed last week at the Masters, Larry Novik just wanted to improve his game. He took up golf three years ago, at the relatively late age of 37, and became frustrated with his inability to play at a consistent level.

Novik, who lives in Saratoga Springs, isn't trying to become Tiger Woods or Rory McIlroy. He said he usually can get his score under 100, but not much lower. (Most pros can shoot in the 60s on much longer and more difficult courses.) "I was struggling as I was learning," Novik said. "Every once in a while you'd hit a flush, crisp shot and say, `I want to be able to do that again.' Mostly what my teacher was saying was my posture was slipping, for whatever reason.

"I got to talking to people about it, and they said, `You've got to get more flexible. You've got to get more core strength. You didn't grow up playing golf. Now that you're getting serious about it at this age, you've got to exercise.'?" His quest took him down a path not traveled by many golfers. Novik turned to Pilates, a body-conditioning system that helps build flexibility and posture by working core muscles.

Unlike many types of exercise that use only the big muscle groups, Pilates works the entire body. The foundation, which Pilates instructors call the "powerhouse," includes the abdomen, lower and upper back, hips, buttocks and inner thighs.

Novik is in week eight of a 10-week program at Reform, a Romana's Pilates studio that stays authentic to the Joseph Pilates method.

"We're trying to give him the flexibility and strength so he can play golf better," said Cindy Potoker, one of Novik's instructors at Reform.

"He was very tight in the upper back through his hip area, so we've been trying to strengthen that and loosen it up." Meghan Del Prete, the studio owner, said she has never played golf, but she was able to detect what Novik needed to do to reach his goals.

"I had him show me some video, and he showed me his swing," she said. "He showed me an ideal swing and how the shoulders separate from the back. He said, `If you look at my swing, you can see they don't separate as much as they should.' " Novik goes through three one-hour sessions weekly with an individual instructor. He will do numerous exercises on each piece of apparatus.

Much like a football coach, the instructor has a plan of an exercise routine for the student but may alter that in the middle of a session.

Del Prete said, "We have to really think on our feet: `The body needs this,' or `That didn't really get what I was trying to have them get out of that exercise. What is another way I can get the same result?'
