List any interesting things you would like to share about yourself

When I walked into The Integral Yoga Centre in Gibraltar and heard Nalanie Chellaram delivering a discourse my direction and future was clear. Somebody was finally speaking my language and it felt like reading my mind.
This was only reinforced when I had the privilege of studying under Satya Greenstone in Portugal.
It coincided that my introduction as a child was at Satyananda Ashram in Australia so when I returned home I continued my studies under Sri Satichdananda's brother monk.

Are there any current scheduling conflicts or anticipated events that could affect your ability to attend any of the scheduled modules?

No
