“knowing others is intelligence;
knowing yourself is true wisdom.
mastering others is strength;
mastering yourself is true power.”

TUESDAY, JULY 26, 2023: SCHEDULE UPDATES
Lots of updates to teaching schedule below! Wednesday class is now through my Zoom instead of Katonah Yoga Center (KYC). We’ll be resuming KYC classes in the fall.
CONTINUING RACIAL AND SOCIAL JUSTICE WORK
I support of the Black Lives Matter movement. For related content, ways, and means to support the movement, seek out BIPOC (black, indigenous and people of color) and allow them to further the narrative. I’m following the guidance of Rachel Cargle in her Public Address on Revolution:
1) Fostering critical knowledge by educating myself via people of color.
2) Cultivating radical empathy by understanding how I play into the pain of others.
3) Practicing intentional action by addressing these issues as they play out in real time in my life.
Let’s do our part to end systemic fear, oppression, and hegemony. “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

I immerse myself in yoga with Nevine Michaan, teaching at Katonah Yoga Center and Viale Yoga.
