Gabbi goes Yoga

MY WHY

Yoga spaces in the western world have long been dominated by able-bodied, flexible, white women - something I have benefited from by being able-bodied, flexible, and white.

The practice of yoga has been transformed into a monetized, competitive, appearance-based sport rather than a spiritual practice.

Yoga, at its core, should inspire and ignite change at both an internal and external level. Yoga is political. Yoga is standing up to injustice.

Yoga is using my privileges both as an instructor and as a student to create a more inclusive space. A space where folks of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, and body sizes feel welcome, supported, and represented.

“I love Gabbi’s yoga classes, she seems to always know just what my body needs! No two classes are the same, and I’ve enjoyed her flow, restorative and most recently, yoga nidra classes. Gabbi is one of those special people that radiates warmth and a sense of calm, perfect for centering the mind and relaxing the body.”

"Gabbi has an uplifting personality and is genuine in her support. I enjoy her insights and teachings during our mediation moments; she always brings something new to the mat. Thanks, Gabbi, for your enduring giggle and for bringing yoga into my life.”

"Gabbi's classes are the best! I always leave her class with a lot less tension (both physical and mental) and feeling more grounded. Gabbi has the incredible ability, even over Zoom, to create a safe, calming environment where you're free to test your limits and just have fun!"
