May 9, 2009: Yoga in Piedmont Park, Atlanta - YouTube.com: This from Bill Hufschmidt at Jai Shanti Yoga in Atlanta: "I had the great honor to teach yoga in Atlanta’s Piedmont Park in February to over 100 people in collaboration with Atlanta ’s chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society. Melissa Mimms, who does all the photography for our studio, created this AMAZING video from photos from the experience. Working with special populations is truly a gift and inspiration!"
Bill got a lot of help from other yoga teachers including Terri Leonard. Terri and Bill both participated in my workshop for yoga teachers, Teaching Adaptive Yoga for Multiple Sclerosis. Terri teaches yoga at the Shepard Center in Atlanta and Bill teaches at his studio, Jai Shanti Yoga. Bill and Terri were also featured in the CNN video.
