See you tomorrow @stillnessandmovementstudio 😘😘
In today's episode, we have a very special guest, In today's episode, we have a very special guest, Anjali Rao (she/her). Anjali is a yoga teacher, writer, and podcast host who offers profound insights into the often obscured stories and histories of yoga. An Indian American immigrant and cancer survivor, Anjali beautifully integrates yoga philosophy and history with storytelling, imagery, and poetry. ⁠ ⁠ Anjali and I had a thought-provoking conversation about the sociopolitical context of yoga and its historical beginnings. We delve into topics such as the caste system, the intersections of power and access to knowledge, and the erasure of South Asian teachers in modern yoga spaces. ⁠ . ⁠ In this episode you’ll hear:⁠ ⁠ 🔸all about Yoga's relationship with the caste system⁠ 🔸a deep dive into Yoga's relationship with hinduism and other religions⁠ 🔸how Anjali recommends we can teach and practice yoga with integrity⁠ 🔸about the political nature of yoga and the connection between spiritual teachings and the pursuit of social change⁠ 🔸a conversation on ahimsa and its active role in disrupting harm (rather than passive inaction)⁠ 🔸the importance of self-reflection and understanding one's positionality as a yoga practitioner and teacher⁠ ⁠ Comment below and let @yoganjali know what the most thought-provoking part of the episode was for you! 👇🏻 👇🏻⁠
I absolutely LOVE getting to teach alongside these I absolutely LOVE getting to teach alongside these incredible people at @stillnessandmovementstudio Their curiosity and tenderness make me a better teacher everyday. As teachers, we view our teaching itself as a practice, and engage in constant inquiry about what good quality yoga teaching looks like. We are inspired by the depth and complexity of the wisdom traditions of yoga and Buddhism and aim to honor yoga’s roots in all our teaching. Ahimsa, awareness, and waking up to the world as it is are the foundations of our teaching. We hope these three principles are evident in all our classes and we intend for these teachings of yoga to come through in the way we actually teach movement.    Our active classes are fun and challenging, especially because we bring in functional, nutritious movement that isn’t found in every yoga class. We recognize that many people love yoga for it’s physical benefits (we do too!) and feel that the best way we can honor that is to teach well-rounded, balancing movement classes.  Come practice with us!
