Christie
McNally
Lama
Christie McNally trained in Tibetan monasteries
in India and Nepal, and received extensive
instruction in all the texts required for
a Geshe degree, which is traditionally a 20-year
course of study.
From
there, she immersed herself in Yoga, and the
secret teachings of Buddhism. She is one of
the first Western women to be recognized as
a Lama. Through her efforts, she has begun
to change the face of Buddhism that has historically
been predominantly male.
Ian
Thorson
Ian
Thorson, a native New Yorker and graduate
of Stanford University, has spent the majority
of his life studying with the world’s
greatest masters of yoga and Buddhist philosophy.
Stepping into the spotlight now and becoming
a teacher in his own right, Ian has co-authored
Two as One, revealing for the first time ancient
Tibetan asana practices for reaching spiritual
goals using a partner. He and Lama Christie
continue to teach their unique two-people-one-mat
yoga throughout the world.
Beginning
December 2010, Ian will join Lama Christie
McNally in the three-year retreat.
