100 Club: Yasmin
1. What does yoga mean to you?
Yoga means consistency. The consistency is grounding, particularly when there is chaos and instability around me.
2. What drew you to the Shala and why did you stick around?
I stumbled upon Newburg Yoga Shala as was looking for a Mysore program after recently moving to the Hudson Valley. I stick around because of my amazing teachers, Bibi & John. The heated floors in the winter are also a nice touch ;)
3. What's one piece of advice you'd give someone new to yoga?
Yoga is always available when you need it. And something my teacher Zoë Slatoff has told me (paraphrasing here), practicing for just 5 minutes is infinitely better than not practicing at all.
4. What's a fun random fact about you?
Fun fact: I lived in Saudi Arabia for two years. My apartment was above a khubz (bread) baker and it was simply the best.
