George E. Purvis II has transitioned.
December 30, 1949 - January 29, 2025
George was my teacher for over 25 years. Those that have studied with me have gotten bits and pieces of George. I will never be able to teach with his level of joy, exuberance and exacting technique. He taught me so much anatomy (I will never forget his favorite - the Peroneus muscles) and movement theory. I will always be in his debt.
Much love my friend, my mentor, my inspiration, my heart.
Until we meet again, Happy trails Tortuga Grande.
A couple of years ago George brought these two pictures to YogaMart and asked me to hang them in the classroom. The picture on the left is George, the right is BKS Iyengar. I was happy to hang them as continuing inspiration for the practice of everyone that comes in the classroom. I was proud to have my friend as an instructor at YogaMart.
HS Arun's 2024 Dallas Workshop was great!
Special Thanks to Arun for another fabulous workshop.
Let's start planning for September 2025!
Restorative/Therapeutic - 10:00AM Fridays
Each class will be restorative in nature, using bolsters, blankets, rope wall and other props. Classes will have a topic, such as low back pain, allergy relief, knee strengthening or headache relief. No matter the topic the practice will have a restorative effect.
Sign up for the Zoom class and you will receive the class recording.
Do not let class time limit your practice.
Go to Classes to see weekly topics.
