Yoga Teaching Scams
Watch out for bogus e-mails requesting one to one
yoga teaching, be very suspect of any request where the sender does not reveal
who they really are. The scam usually involves asking for rates for teaching
yoga (no doubt other disciplines as well) they then accept your rates and send
money order to cover the cost, they usually make a "mistake" and send too much
requesting that you send them the surplus back! Needless to say their bank draft
looks OK and will be accepted by banks, but will bounce later, by then they hope
to have received your refund and cashed it so watch out.

Bill Heilbron's Retirement

Bill retired this year after a teaching career of 40 years, preceded
by his own instruction from Wilfred Clarke, the founder of the
British Wheel.
Message from Rachel White –
Warwickshire County Rep.
Bill, we wanted to mark the
occasion of your retirement from teaching classes and express our
admiration and gratitude for all you have
contributed to yoga over the years.
Yoga teaching is a very special profession - it allows us to share
something of a very powerful body of knowledge that will help people
not only to feel good in the moment but to take away something of
lasting value.
Bill, in your many years of teaching, your fellow teachers know,
there will be many, many students who have greatly benefited and
enjoyed your teaching. And we also have benefited from your
experience and the generosity with which you've shared your
knowledge, at our meetings and in your writings. So thank you for
your contribution to yoga, we wish you all the very best with your
writing and other ventures and know you will continue to bring your
knowledge and humour to our meetings.
We celebrate your achievement and contribution to yoga.
Thank you.
