To the ashtanga yoga community: I’m cheering for you.
Ive recieved a lot of shame and pressure from my colleagues over the years about my open approach — an approach that is now considered the gold standard in circles that respect both the science of strength and conditioning and yoga as an indigenous insight practice.
Am I mad? No. I’m too busy being blessed.
Since my parents needed full-time care for a while (and my clientele has been largely in person) ive been busy. My book got backburnered for a few months. I want the world to have it.
Im so happy that people who dont have the same caretaking work that I have are available to usher in the conversations i want to be having. And I hope my little talking heads have been valuable to you guys. Sometimes my colleagues get a bit myopic and territorial. I’m appaled by that, especially since my approach dismantles that.
As the federal government’s yoga consultant, ive been busy. You get it.
Since i work with people in real life, these systems and processes I have refined over the last 10 years have been siloed. I want them out in the open.
