An avid runner and rock climber in the 1990's, I kept hearing the call of yoga in quiet ways for many years before it finally got my attention in the form of a strong and effortless rock climber I watched at my hometown crag in Flagstaff, AZ. When I asked the rock star her secret, the reply was simply a twinkly-eyed "Ashtanga Yoga."

Climbing and running slowly took a backseat to what would become my primary way to sweat: vinyasa flow yoga. Almost 15 years later, I am still a flow yoga junkie, with a healthy dose of meditation and pranayama in my practice. I am filled with gratitude for the many... Read the profile >>
