What does it mean to truly form community? To be in sangha with one another? Every day in studios all across the Bay Area we roll out our mats, side by side, flow and breathe, move our bodies, set intention and lay in savasana together.

Yoga has changed my life in almost every way. Once you begin to practice yoga, you realize it’s not just a practice on the mat, it’s a way of life. Most importantly, it’s transformed my inner conversation. It’s also transformed my relationships with myself and with my family. I think (I hope!) I have more patience and compassion for all of us now...
