Organizer: Robert Boumel (Darshan)
Kundalini yoga first found me in 1972. I was on the road for a couple years, as was common then. One day in Tucson, Arizona I was invited to a free Kundalini class at the town park. I went back to the Ashram after class, then did yoga (Sadhana) with them daily for a few months - until it was time to start moving on down the road again. So my life went on..... Eventually I settled, got married (we have to great sons), developed a career and seemed to be fine until I hit my mid-life crisis. I had so focused on providing for my family and taking care of what was immediately in front of me that I had lost touch with my self. That's when I remembered the yoga I had done when I was young, and how good it had been for me. So I went out and found a teacher, and have been gratefully practicing Kundalini for the last 18 years.
I'm retired now; have had a challenging yet blessed life. In thinking about how to give back, I remembered what an important seed those yoga classes had planted in me when I was young. Bringing Y.O.G.A. for Youth to South Florida and being a Y.O.G.A. for Youth teacher is my perfect way to pass it on. Perhaps we can sow some seeds with our young that will help them grow to their best potential. They are our future.
