CONNECTION: The action of linking one thing with another. Linking our breath to our movements…that is where the sweetness lies.

Repost @sandeelawlessyoga My Guides are calling, the Ancestors are clear. They are saying “RISE UP! Serve, guide and share this practice in ways that dismantle ableist approaches and create true, BRAVE spaces. Disrupt power dynamics. It is time for a change. Shed the notion that ‘advanced’ postures mean advanced practitioner. That use of props, chairs, walls are somehow a barrier in connecting to the Divine-to our true nature. If we use blocks we are somehow undeserving …or we are the exception, the other, not the norm- the thought ‘blocks create blocks’, or other such nonsense and ‘jokes’. If this causes you to question, ponder and just doesn’t sit well with you—perhaps you are part of the change. If this calls to you, speaks to your heart—I invite you to STEP IN. We are being called to create change. I have been working on this program for quite some time, and I am really honored to share this with you-it has been created with guidance, passion, vision, heart and a full on LOVE AFFAIR with this method, and how it can be accessible, brave, and transformative. How the collective can benefit from your efforts. How we shed ourselves from our limiting beliefs, but never bypass—to step in, lean in and do the work. I bow my head in full and complete gratitude for the Ancestors and Teachers who came before me, to make this program possible. Especially those from South Asia from which this practice comes. Without their efforts, devotion and labor, this would not be. Starts October 1. Tiered Pricing and Payment Plans. Small Cohort. Individualized, Training Plan.
