Teaching:
• Creating visible structures of support—like a registry—parallels how the Ashtanga system makes practice accessible by naming and sequencing postures clearly
• Inclusion requires intentional infrastructure, not just goodwill; similarly, students need explicit cueing and scaffolding to access poses safely
• Recognition and naming (like a registry) can empower marginalized practitioners to claim space in the shala without needing to prove belonging
Writing seeds:
• Essay on how yoga spaces often claim inclusivity without building actual systems to support queer, trans, or marginalized students—what would a 'registry' for belonging look like in a shala?
• Post comparing state-level entrepreneurship support to how teachers can create explicit pathways for students who don't fit the 'flexible young body' mold
• Reflection on visibility as infrastructure: how making queer presence explicit (vs. assumed neutral/invisible) changes power dynamics in practice communities
• Short piece on systems literacy in social justice—registries, databases, and intentional structures vs. vague commitments to 'welcoming everyone'
Idea map:
• Systems literacy applied to equity: inclusion requires designed infrastructure, not just stated values—mirrors how practice needs method, not just intention
• Visibility as a system feature—naming and tracking creates accountability, similar to how the Ashtanga sequence makes progress and gaps visible
• Entrepreneurship and practice both require scaffolding; marginalized practitioners need explicit support structures to navigate gatekeeping
• Attention to who gets seen and counted connects to how teachers track (or ignore) students who don't fit normative body/identity templates
