change the world

“We are stars in skin

the light we seek is within.” -Rumi

I don’t believe we are here to change who we are, but to become all of who we are.

Yoga is simply the practice of deconstructing barriers we hide behind, releasing stories that diminish our light, peeling back layers and allowing grace to unfold within us.

The asana uses the physical practice of yoga to begin the process of deconstructing barriers in our bodies- the places we grasp for dear life-

the breath moves into the cracks we begin to create, layers of tension and holding release…

allowing light trapped deep inside to glow. We walk taller, we feel stronger, our shoulders move down away from our ears and our chest broadens. Our face relaxes and our lips open into a smile. As our grip releases, our palms open, our toes spread.

There is space for love to pour in and light to flow out.

We begin to allow our true selves to be seen and our own light to shine.

As this happens, we give others permission to do the same

and we change the world.
