Hi Michelle,

I just received the following "comment" to my profile which is totally inappropriate on this forum:

Hello Dear,
Am writing you after brief reading of your profile which got my attention, just to let you know that i have interest of establishing of a relations with you.

This the email you will reply to ( lenny_eden22@yahoo.in )
once i got your reply i will send you my photos and tell you more about me,
yours new friend
Lenny.

please reply to my mail box not to the site ( lenny_eden22@yahoo.in )

I wonder how this person was approved as he seems to think this is a dating site!  Please advise as to how to protect myself from this.  I have never even written a comment before but this sort thing is contrary to what we need on as yogis yoginis and cancer patients/survivors!  

Please advise,

Namaste,

Barbara

Hi Michelle,

I'd like to know more about the Healing Yoga Project. How does a hospital get one started? I've recently taken a workshop, Yoga for Survivors, with Laura Kupperman and Im anxious to get started working with cancer patients, survivors and caregivers.

thanks!

Hi Michelle,
I am a recent cancer survivor, and would love to get into a yoga program.
I live in Colorado, are there any programs for survivors out here?

I am Marilou. Halle T from Yoga Bear suggested that I contact you. I am a 3-time cancer survivor and have problems with my legs such as feeling pain when I kneel and squat. I have heard about the benefits of yoga and that some poses do not require strenuous leg work, so I would like to try it. Would you know where in Manhattan I could get a free pass?

Hi Michelle, was wondering why my studio does not show up as a participating studio on the map on your site. I haven't spent enough time with this, I guess, just yet! Thanks for the help.

Hi Michelle,

I joined Yoga Bear a little over 3 weeks ago. At that time, I also filled out an application online to take Yoga classes at a NY location. I haven't heard back yet as to whether my application was approved or what I need to do next to get things rolling. Could you please let me know if there is something else I need to do to expedite the process?

Thank you so much!

-Susan

Hi Michelle, I recently joined Yoga Bear after reading the article in The Daily News. I am interested in taking yoga classes and was wondering how the process works. Will someone be contacting me regarding locations and possible membership? I live in Massapequa on Long Island. Thanks for your assistance.
