“A Plague of Locusts” #tourof2nd What if you had to hold this posture forever? What would you do? Would you shift the dristi to stay fresh and curious? Would you just settle in and relax, letting it unfurl? Is there a middle way? — Find the entire Intermediate Series (and more) in the latest Ashtanga…

“Monkey Paw” #tourof2nd @Pegmulqueen and I met when I was in my early twenties. She had a blog, and I wrote essays. I got shy. Down the line, we were both @lululemon ambassadors and found ourselves in Vancouver the first ambassador’s summit. There, we connected, honestly and openly. She convinced me to do what my…

“Living Traditions” #tourof2nd I hear stories of this guy named Derick Ireland. He passed away a few years ago, but taught on the beaches of Goa and Greece. He wasn’t so much, on the surface, into the “spiritual” side of things. He wore ankle weights, practiced in less than a speedo, and sold a valid…

Then, it was the extracurricular american style flows. “I have enough to work on,” I thought. At conference, on my first trip…

“Updog & Infinity” #tourof2nd Beginning in samasthithi, I am a ray of light: infinite, interminable energy. I begin the sun salutations by reaching to the sky, daring the energy to upwardly rise- then sealing it with the hands. Containing the energy inwardly and plugging to the earth comes with the second position: allowing the energy…

“Four to the Floor” #tourof2nd #day2 In the early 2000’s, I was a young queer kid cutting his teeth dancing on boxes (shirtless). When that familiar 4/4 beat of a good house groove came on, everyone would book it to the dancedloor– answering the siren’s call of “four to the floor!” This, you could say,…

“Trini & Tristhana” #tourof2nd #day1 The Ashtanga yoga practice as taught by Jois is a moving meditation, and for there to be a meditation there must be an object upon which the meditator meditates. The looking place, the breath patternings, and the observation of balance are three facets of a singular jewel, and this jewel…
