sometimes i catch myself thinking that through teaching yoga i’m engaging in a kind of social sculpture — where participants (no longer spectators) move and can offer by themselves a new experience over an extended duration, rather than just observing. an encounter with art is an event; practice is routine, a play with temporality

our retreat in Vietnam ended the same way it began — with a sharing: from “what is your intention for this trip?” to “what are you taking with you?”
i used to avoid this. circles, games, conversations:it all felt too flat, as if “real practice” had to be serious, almost hermetic. but something shifted: the need for sincerity became louder than any of those beliefs

this time it unfolded differently: yoga, meditation, hiking, sharings, dinners, and being in a space where honesty felt possible. sometimes deeper than with a therapist. i’ve wanted to create interdisciplinary retreats for a long time, and it’s finally beginning

it matters to me not to make things perfect, but real to create spaces where adults can feel free, be playful, find their people

this is the practice: feeling this life

stay tuned — next retreat in early september
