Direct Lines
"The Tribal Newspaper Rock of Wholistic Fitness® Warriors"
- since 1985

Formerly known as a printed newsletter, "The Journal of Wholistic Fitness®", DIRECT LINES has survived and thrived into one of the first Subscription Blogs. DL - as we lovingly refer to her - functions as a daily vital "training partner" for our Students, Fans, and Friends. DL carries fresh daily Dharma Teachings from myself and offers you the "Rasas" or "sap" of Wholistic Fitness® and High Performance Yoga® and SUNRIDER® Herb Teachings, Practices, and my downright hilarious Crazy Wisdom Antics!

Using Student input, my actual coaching exchanges, and my multi-tiered Teaching skills amassed from a lifetime of extreme sports, yoga teaching, Dharma Protection, personal training, and spiritual studies, my DLs sweep the body/mind/spiritual landscape and physiologic fitness spectrum with the passion of Padmasambhava and stings the Dharma Cells of all people interested in the necessity of "daily sweat and stillness."

In the spring of 2006, i turned DL into a paid subscription blog to help mitigate long years of copyright and intellectual property abuse of my blog and newsletter which i offered for free for 20+ years.

Subscribers to DL look forward to actual Training Programs, exciting 'travelogue accounts' from my racing, historical snippets of WF, rare photos, "Inner Circle" Teachings and true stories about my various challenges from the Outer and Inner Worlds, plus the day by day magic of the worldwide Wholistic Fintess® sangha which contribute to the torrential inspiration of this unique Path. I want everyone to be on par for Enlightenment in this lifetime, and i take you along with me as my own Practice and Teaching skills mature. Subscribers also have access to the thousands of Teachings known as the "DL Archives" which cover nearly every imaginable aspect of strength, cardio, yoga, meditation, nutrition, and lifestyle Practices in the most uniquely inspirational and informative manner on the planet!

I know you will support our humble, yet Powerful Temple beneath the Sacred Peak by subscribing to DL today...we need your pennies to keep producing the Pranic Filled Power of The WF Path!

Below are just a few of the hundreds of emails sent, unsolicited, to me throughout the years. They give you a small token of appreciation for how powerful the mere Practice of reading DL each day can benefit your own Practice.

After my morning ritual, I cruised to "Direct Lines" for the latest and greatest chi-hit from one of the most inspiring teachers on the Planet. And, as so often happens, what I was seeking was right there for me! Your dialogue with "Student S" hit me right between the eyes, as I engage in my training plan for today and look forward to racing tomorrow.
Thank you so much for opening up to all of us fortunate enough to know and experience "Direct Lines".

a forever grateful and humbled student,
