  • Thanks to all that have practiced with me as their teacher, and for the friends and strangers I have practiced alongside. Thanks to my teachers and colleagues who push far past the trivial and obvious when studying the human body for the sake of exploration and breaking new ground. Thanks to the steadfast folks who recognize the appropriation of yoga and the commodification of the practice yet work progressively in lieu of growth and aim to intentionally uphold integrity in this field. And importantly thanks to everyone who has listened to me talk endlessly on the subject of yoga.

    Thank you mom, I love you the most.
