I found yoga (or it found me), over 20 years ago at a gym in the West Village and it has been my faithful friend ever since. Anxious, untethered, and grasping, I discovered a place to drop anchor and study my mind, my heart, my body, and my breath and not totally freak out. I am grateful beyond language to bring this practice to others. Now, my temple is virtually any room where people come together to practice stillness, to breathe, to move, to be brave, to open, and to witness.
