Monk Camp

The Pyu were the crown of Vedic culture. They lived and breathed the eight-fold yoga system. A towering achievment to potential evolution of mankind. They woke up with prayer-meditation. Their day stayed that way in prayer-meditation from Dhanda walks, yoga asanas, the preparation of their food, to Min Zin meditation before bed. These camps help experience a taste of that lifestyle.

Monk Camp is only open to poeple already practicing in this system.

Greetings,

We monk practitioners in Maryland invite the Bando Family and others to attend the upcoming Spring Monk Camp, which is scheduled for 24th through 26th April 2009. The theme for this camp is "Synergy of Motion: balance, focus, and energy." Sessions for this camp will include self-defense techniques, yoga drills, Min Zin, and other approaches. In addition, the principles and practices of Fast-Movement Yoga will be introduced.

Similar to previous camps in Maryland, there will be comfortable accommodations, stimulating social interactions, and outstanding training sessions. Past camps have included participants from different systems and of diverse ages, and this Monk Camp will be no different in that regard. Thus, we invite persons who are new to the Bando Monk System. There will also be sessions for advanced monk practitioners seeking new skills, and Dr. Gyi is scheduled to attend the camp.

Attached is a brief summary of Bando's Monk System that should help with questions about participant requirements.

We hope to accommodate as many interested persons as possible, but the space is limited. Therefore it is important to register as soon as possible. Camp objectives, fees, registration and other information are attached. The attached registration form is 'fillable' for persons who have full versions of Adobe Acrobat (reader versions--which are free--are only for reading a document). Simply complete the form online and post it back to my email address. If you use the reader only, you will need to print the document, fill it out by hand, and mail it to me (Dr. Winborne).

Persons who plan to attend should be certain to bring along cushions, yoga mats, or blankets for meditation and indoor yoga/fitness sessions. Also, "personal" meditation beads and Min Zin stones should be brought along to the camp, if practitioners already have these items.

Please contact myself (410.869.7979) or Fredi Prevost (202.270.0100) if you have any questions about this upcoming camp.

Again, we invite members of the Bando Family and others to attend, and look forward to seeing at the Spring 2009 Monk Camp in Maryland!

Peace,

Dr. Winborne
