We live in a time of spiritual paradox. With the level of interconnectivity and information exchange these days, almost any spiritual practice sought after can be found. You would think large numbers of people would be well on their way to enlightenment. But I can quickly point out that the vast majority of people today lack basic discipline.
But it goes much deeper than that. No matter how much practice people do, other than the initial changes that hook them, very little happens thereafter. Many teachers like Adyashanti just seem to resolve themselves to the idea that most students have no hope of making progress and that they should learn to accept that reality.

At one time, I would have said that I would love to be a professional student. I meant that in the sense of formal education. Over time and exposure to some exceptional teachers and having had some unusual experiences, my point of view has changed. I'm not saying that I no longer want to learn new things.
When I moved to Florida to work for Federal Express (information technology), one of my co-workers wanted to take swing lessons but didn't want to go alone. He asked me to go and I didn't put up much resistance. He had chosen the John Parnell dance studio, which is somewhat well known for the father of the Parnell daughters and his ability to coax money out of people and then squander it.
My first exposure to yoga was in high school. My Mom signed us up for an Iyengar class in Bethesda, Maryland at the Unity Woods yoga center, an excellent choice; the center is still around today and doing very well. I remember feeling so good after class; walking felt so different with my hamstrings loosened up.
Under the Modalities menu, I list the forms of massage and bodywork and in some cases influences that I integrate into my work. I'm not completely enamored with any known modality as the only means to approaching bodywork. The modalities I cover are the ones that my path has taken me to. I haven't intellectually chosen any of them outside of my life experience.
Body Tuning is a form of bodywork based on western physical therapy, yoga, osteopathy, acupuncture, tai chi chuan and reflex therapy. The most well known practitioner of Body Tuning in the United States is Shmuel Tatz, who is based out of New York city. I got exposed to this work from one of his best students and at the time one of his co-workers Glenn Black.
