Alexandria's Bio
My daily yoga practice has shown me how to approach my life with eyes wide open, allowing me to achieve a sense of ease and acceptance I never thought possible. Choosing to walk down this path has changed my life completely and left me more accepting of myself and the nature of reality than I ever thought possible. Challenges will always exist, but I see them clearly and quickly now, and thanks to my yoga practice, I have the tools to act with great skill.

Some topics we discuss:

• Transitioning from competitive gymnastics to yoga.
• Alignment principles and injury.
• First fascination with yoga poses.
• Is there a place for comedy and yoga?
