| Join our online community! |
| We believe that the Internet is the physical manifestation of our already existing oneness. The ability to so easily connect with each other is miraculous and powerful. |
So, with the encouragement of our friend Andrey, we are in the process of rebuilding Lulu Bandha's in an open source social networking software called Drupal.
|
| As a community member you will be able to create a personal page, share your latest findings from your practice and teaching, post calender events and meet yoga buddies. You might just need a ride to town or a place to stay while visiting. We are still in the early stages of development and we look forward to meeting you here. |
