On this: E-RYT® 500, YACEP® “over 10,000 hours of teaching experience stretching back to 2010 and 800 hours + of “official” teacher trainings of different styles and modalities”.

I’m not one for stats and elevator pitches, but it’s something that’s often asked of me, as i understand to some people, it means i’m “validated” which is, to be honest, problematic (let me not get into privileges as a black, mixed heritage woman according to the language of this moment, the barriers to access when it comes to costs and locations of trainings, not to mention the different learning styles and methods we have, and the content of trainings themselves! i continue to speak on these things often, however!)

🎧 A podcast dissecting my experience in mainstream "yogaland": the lack of inclusivity + the abundance of labels and why i chose to make my create my own path

I do not say all this to discredit the hard graft i put into the hours above and beyond, rather, to remind us “hours” are no good if we’re not really engaging with the work, or we’re not present with what we’re actually doing, asking questions about why we’re doing it, and also, showing up to be human in the process.

i’m interested in ever-exploring, ever being the student and taking time to explore learnings. Getting curious, putting “theory” into practice, asking questions, changing my mind, sharing ideas, encouraging and inviting my students (it feels weird to call people “my students”, still, rather, “other humans”) to do the same - and to clarify, not to “do the same as me”, far from it, rather, to cultivate trust in themselves as they explore on their own journey.

The practice as the practice. Do you know what i mean? Projections of labels don’t interest me unless they liberate.

i am interested in my offerings inviting us to feel free to be more of who we are.

I’m also asked to recommend teachers, which also calls for tea. But some of my beloved ones include Bo Forbes, Jason Crandell and Pete Blackaby. But also: shoutout to other teachers including nature, particularly trees and seas, dogs and cats and cows and sheep, my ancestors, music, Eartha Kitt and other Ethel muses, as well as experiences on this planet and what they taught me such as: poverty, grief, loss, joy, living with a chronic illness and disability, the spectrum of living on this planet with many lives, countries, places and careers lived, aka, life pie 🥧
