Ashtanga Yoga: A Feminine Perspective with Monica Gauci, Genny Wilkinson, Tara Mitra, + Katy Scherer

About this episode

The episode discusses the experience of women practicing Ashtanga yoga from a feminine perspective.

What does it mean to be a woman practicing Ashtanga yoga? Join Monica, Genny, Tara, Katy and me as we discuss what can seem like a very masculine practice, from a female perspective. And if you enjoy this episode, then I invite you to join me over on Substack for a new 12-part series exploring the femine archetypes. We begin this month with The Queen.
