on friday morning, may 30th 2008, i had the pleasure of practicing yoga in mighty powerful, dana flynn's 9am class at the sf laughing lotus temple. i was surrounded by a duo of ojai's brightest love warriors, kira ryder and alana mitnick. after a fiery practice, a delicious savory crepe brunch, and some of the best yoga talk i've ever had; i was INSPIRED, FASCINATED, and REFRESHED. inspired by kira's passionate, wide open heart and honest encouragement. fascinated with dana's ability to transform mud into lotus flowers and create doors where there were no doors before. refreshed by the blossoming teacher and angelic curiosity bubbling in alana.
my morning with the fabulous yogini's led me to discover kira's insightful, quirky, entertaining "blog of a yogi" http://kiraryder.blogspot.com/. i was instantly overwhelmed with the urge to create my own blog and release some of the creative energy overflowing inside me.
this blog is a new beginning. a home to share the BIG and lil moments of growth, change, and joy that guide my life. a reminder to be present, listen, breathe, sit, and reflect. it's a tribute to all my amazing teachers who have entered and transformed my life in the past three years since i began dancing on the yoga train. thank you for helping me develop a voice and a language to allow my heart to speak...alseny soumah, djeneba sako, saul david raye, dana flynn, denise kaufman, bill wyland, gizella donald, elizabeth herrick, sean johnson, kira ryder, jasmine tarkeshi, mariama bangoura, keith borden, baxter bell, youssouf koumbassa, erich schiffmann, seane corn, amma, rod stryker, katchie ananda, nathalie canessa, kristie dahlia home, gigi chiarello, julianne reynolds, richard wegman, liza matlack, and my family.
