Private yoga and mindful movement for all types of bodies. "You ought to eat the tangerine section you've already taken.

If you can eat just one section, you can probably eat the whole tangerine." - Thich Nhat Hanh

Yoga is thousands and thousands of years old. The first yogic texts had nothing to do with the physical body. Westerners were largely unfamiliar with yoga until the 1960’s, then it became more popular a mode of physical fitness.
Like many things, yoga is multidimensional and complex…and doesn’t rely on your fitness or flexibility. All it requires is your presence.
I am honored to teach yoga to anyone who is interested in stilling their mind, detaching themselves from the demands of the outside world, and working to connect their body, mind and spirit.

This is Paula, my mother-in-law turned avid yoga student. You may know her around town for her wonderful laugh or, quite possibly, she was your second grade teacher.
2 months ago, we started our yoga sessions seated in a chair - she has been recovering from a knee replacement surgery and has severe arthritis, and she was very nervous about falling.
After a few sessions, she progressed from a chair to a ball and then to floor postures, and she is gaining strength and flexibility every week. I’m so proud of her work and determination.

Meet Ginny and Charlie Stewart, two students I have the pleasure of teaching twice a week. Ginny and Charlie came to yoga fresh, curious and wanting to increase their vitality.

I have witnessed them gain strength and flexibility and stay dedicated to their work, even continuing their practice at home. I am lucky to begin each week guiding them and laughing alongside them. ✨

Western yoga is largely a racket, made up of Susans and Karens and Brittanys who gleefully appropriate and look only within themselves.
The real practice of yoga is totally different. The real practice commands you look outside yourself and examine how to interact with the world in a way that is mindful and aware and not always about you.
This means not stealing from the process itself - and not expecting it to be a simple or tidy or comfy journey.
This means not stealing from the pleasure or pain or ritual of black and brown people. It means never stealing from black people’s energy, ever. It means supporting, speaking up and speaking out beyond this moment in history that is quickly becoming the Compassion Olympics.

has taken the time and energy to graciously explain this. She shouldn’t have to.

I took this pic 4 years ago on a sweaty day in July in downtown Atlanta. What will change after this week? Month? Year? That is up to us. In 4 more years are we going to be holding the same damn signs? If you want to answer “no,” then do something. There are a million things to do. You don’t have to take to the streets. But you do have to keep the fire in your heart and share it any way you are able. Educate yourselves. Help a stranger. Smile and wave when you see someone different than you walking down the street. Strike up a conversation outside your bubble. Speak out when something is wrong. Step up. Stop making it all about you. Read and think critically before engaging in dialogue. Provide resources. Make space. Vote.
