A proposito di questo titolo
What motivated me to open a yoga studio in a conservative rural Texas town? I suppose the same thing that motivated Patrick Swayze to sashay through a small town in the movie To Wong Foo. Maybe not quite the same gumption, but the inner rebel in me didn't care that yoga might not be maintstream in Hamilton County.
After years of attending online yoga classes, I was ready to return to that sense of community that can only be found in a studio. It's been an uphill battle, but we have forged a small student base that is better together.
My "rock the damn boat" attitude really shines through when I teach that any body type can practice yoga. For one thing, what we do on the mat is only one limb of yoga: asana. And secondly, striving for physical perfection in yoga goes against the very idea of yogic philosophy.
This won't be the last you hear from me on this topic, but to understand my relationship with yoga is to understand my humble beginnings and how it has transformed me.
