Just found out that Jules was one of the people who actually developed Contact Yoga. Main teacher was a Kripalu guy called "Tesh" (I think). And then I think Jules added in some of the partner stuff that he was doing in his work with clients.
Partner work with Jules is very cool. He "flies" you on his feet - and you effortlessly go into fantastic backbends etc.... and get amazing spinal releases.
I was a bit freaked at first because I'm 220 pounds and that's a lot to have balancing on your feet. I remember him saying "Don't worry - I've had over 300 pounds up there with no problem."
(he was a competitive body builder when he was young I think)
I think Acroyoga is another type of yoga that does the "flying" thing.
Cheers
Phil
