Tara Stiles is a global yoga, movement, wellness, and mindfulness expert, author and founder of Stråla Yoga. For episode 173, we talk about how dance was actually the gateway for her practice, opening up a world of freedom and joy that she didn’t know was possible. We talk about her first few classes at Crunch, the instructors that shaped her practice, and the frenzy that came hand in hand with opening her own space. Plus: The whirlwind that was getting featured in The New York Times and how earning the nickname "yoga rebel" changed everything for her. Tara and OI also rap about teaching during covid, what it’s been like for her shifting to digital, and how she keeps her head on straight with hundreds of thousands of people practicing with her online.
