Year 2021 was a long and interesting journey that brought growth in my professional life and shifts in personal one. I experienced it with joys and tears equally. I found myself in moments of uplifting presence, elation, and connection as well as dimming moments of absence, grief and separation.
I decided to not renew my certification for Iyengar Yoga™. I have updated my instructor bio and social media profiles to reflect this change in my career. This decision came to me after much needed contemplation to move forward for personal and professional reasons. And I am feeling good about it.
I am grateful to have been part of the global family of certified Iyengar Yoga teachers. I have learned from great teachers, and this method has immensely deepened my yoga practice. I will forever be indebted to the teachings of B.K.S. Iyengar and the Iyengar family.
I recently had a fun conversation with Arundhati Baitmangalkar, the host of Let’s Talk Yoga podcast. In this interview I share my origin story of how I got into the practice of yoga. We chat about creativity in sequencing and the use of props. I share my personal opinion on vinyasa yoga and vinyasa flow. We discuss the use of props as as a support system in yoga practice, and much more. Stream the podcast on the web or listen via Spotify.
This Juneteenth celebration I was happy to combine my Gemini powers and and share with friends and followers my passion for DJ’ing music. Together we virtually enjoyed and danced to a livestream. Collectively we raised funds to support @colorofchange, a great organization that is powering the movement to help end police brutality against black lives.
It’s been soul-crushing, gut-wrenching and heart-breaking to witness the atrocities and nonstop massacre carried out by Israeli governement on the people of Gaza. The average age of those killed in this war is 5 years old. As of this writing over 10,000 children have been killed by the Israeli war. The majority of deaths are of women and children. Nothing can ever justify these statistics. The momentary ceasefire in November was not enough. The genocide of Palestinian people has to stop. The world is watching and waking up. The time is now to end all genocides—this includes the liberation for the people of Congo, Sudan, and Armenia. The liberation for Palestine signifies the end of late stage western colonial settler occupation. To free Palestine is to free all others who are occupied and oppressed.
