A dream of mine has finally come true! I will now formally be able to combine my love of yoga with my love of the Center for Global Education mission and pedagogy by teaching a yoga course as part of the semester experience here. For a while now, I have been casually teaching yoga to interested students on the beach when I travel with the students to the coast, and in the dunes during the trip to the South. Students have often asked me to teach yoga more in Windhoek, but between my work schedule and the students' schedule its never happened. Now, Augsburg students will be able to get their lifetime fitness credit by studying yoga in Namibia. Read more about plans for the course!

In the west, the term "yoga" is usually associated with the practice of Yoga asana - physical movements & poses. Yet asana is just a tiny slice of the entire "pie" that is the Yoga tradition. This article places yoga asana in the larger context of the Six Yogas System of Hatha, Raja, Bhakti, Jnana, Kritya & Karma Yoga.
