Just had a tug on the heartstrings-- remembering getting snowed in with best friends. Enjoy for me, DC.

Oh my god, I forgot how comfortable my bed is. Charlie and I may never get up.
I love the days when the age range in the Shala is from 5-60. I love it when there are not enough fingers on one hand for the different races/ethnicities. I love it when there is a smattering of witches, Christians, Muslims, Jews, Athiests, and dudes who pray to Elephants.
Today was one of those days.
DC ASHTANGA, you're what's up.

Hampi showed Charlie around Rock Creek.
I love DC.

Largest mass arrest in Washington's history just happened. Did you hear about it?
Yoga, my friends, dogs, and this city. <3
"Did you just move here from Brooklyn?"
"Nope, I've been here for 15 years."
"Oh, I would have never guessed. I've been here for 28."

Guys-- can anyone provide some reading on "safe spaces" versus "self segregation"? I see affluent folks participating in things that skirt the law on the regular, under the guise of "gay inclusivity" (using areas without permits, public drinking, etc) and they are mostly white monied men.
I know that we need safe spaces to gather and share common experience, but when does that become detrimentally exclusionary? When does it breed racism, classism, and homonormativiyy?

Charlie's ready for Pride!
I love: family, friends, DC, and my queer brothers & sisters.
A guy sped up at me in the crosswalk. Honked. Yelled. Called me a faggot. Threatened to kill me. I stood my ground. Didn't cuss-- switched into teacher mode and made him say he was sorry. He's a DC firefighter with MD plates. Anyone got any ideas how to inform his employer? Take it away, Facebook!
How a D.C. political novice unseated longtime council member Vincent Orange.
We've largely replaced our council in just 2 years-- as a city, we took ethics and finance seriously enough to make big changes.
Perhaps this is a good model for our Nation's approach to the future?

My favorite buddy at the zoo. He would wave, stand up on his hind legs, and occasionally roar. He lived 10 years longer than the average sloth bear in human care.

It's so clear today I can see from 14th & Fairmont to the Potomac. WOW!
The president is having a town hall on race and gun violence next door. I want to go-- they're literally next door.
You did great, Laura!
This is a fab list, and the City Paper is lucky to have you!

The other side. This city never disappoints the eyes.
I'm so excited for my DC Ashtanga tank with a unicorn.
Want a DC Ashtanga t, and can't grab one in person? HMU
I've had the good fortune to teach contortion to Pole Dancers the past couple of months at Pole Pressure in downtown DC. as most of you know, I have a great love of performance art-- especially burlesque and circus. It's been fantastic working with these athletes, performers, and artists.
Saw a paunchy white guy get escorted out of Town by the police last night. His entitled act fucking slaaayed me. Best show in town.
Yes, lets take a look at Washington, DC, Donald. Lets talk about why we're divisive.
Considering expanding hours to 9:30 or 10am at DC Ashtanga. Do we know any service industry or yoga folks who have wanted to practice but couldn't?

Why is every place built in the last 7 years on 14th Street (between U & P) a white person factory?

Quiet morning at the shala-- led primary with a single row. Same faces as as when one full row was a busy day. I love these folks.
