David in laugh a minute form (and some) at the confluence this year
Thank you to Reid Robison for sharing these.
Also full Primary
And this is excellent from Ashtanga Yoga Hong Kong
( supposedly, David lived in Hong Kong in the 80s)
David Swenson "Life, Love & Living with Purpose" at the Asia Yoga Conference, 14th of June, 2015
I pretty much started with David Swenson's books and DVDs and would still argue that his Ashtanga manual is the only Ashtanga book you need for the first couple of years...., then pick up Pattabhi Jois' Yoga Mala when you're ready and a couple of years later perhaps, Krishnamacharya's Yoga Makaranda and take a look at the Yoga Reading list page at the top of the blog
In the beginning, I practiced David's Ashtanga Short Forms (at the back of his book ) for six months to a year, until I picked up Sharath's speedy Primary and was able to hurtle through the series in an hour. Interestingly perhaps, nine years later, I'm back to a short form

David has a new DVD and my dear friend Maya over at Mayaland has put up an excellent (as ever) review.

Aww, Grim, you're so good to me. You're my dear friend, too! And thanks so much for these DS videos, I hadn't seen them and they are lovely. I am just always struck by how generous he is with his teaching and his attitude.
Oh, and you're going to laugh at me, but in that other post you did a while back mentioning circus trainers, I sort of thought you were talking about metaphorical circus trainers, but no, my internet-stream just delivered to me yoga teachers using REAL *actual* circus trainers, haha, I was totally laughing when I saw that
David is such a yogi
