Gearing up to start a wellness program consisting of yoga, meditation, resistance training, book work, and feed 9 students lunch with the help of my new friend and yoga teacher, Shawn, I just wanted to reflect on how I got here and why. When an American hears ‘yoga’ they are probably thinking of a women’s …
A Detroit Dream. For the last four years I’ve been freestyling/singing in my basement so often I’ve accumulated over 800 videos and it’s a ride I don’t think I’ll ever get off.
