2015 My Year in Posts -12 posts from the year PLUS Pattabhi Jois list (13 posts), Krishnamacharya list (26 posts) and Ramaswami's Newsletters.


Our mountain, yesterday Shiga.

There was a point in November when My Hard drive was grinding to a halt when I thought I might as well stop blogging altogether, besides it's not as if I'd blogged much that year....

Turns out I had blogged more than I'd thought, 150 posts (although previous years were 250-350, what did i find to write about?). Below I've chosen one a month that I'd like to read again myself.

Below that list is a list of Ramaswami's monthly newsletters/articles

Also a list of 23 posts with Krishnamacharya in the title, there are probably other posts concerning krishnamacharya but I was just going by the title.

There is also a list of 13 posts on Pattabhi Jois


Best wishes for the new year.

We moved to Shiga prefecture (Japan) from Osaka in November,my Mac's HD had been playing up for sometime, it ground to a stop in Novemebr thus the lack of posts. It's still playing up but seems to be working better in the mornings of late.
