The yoga industry historically has not and still isn't living up to the inclusive definition of its name PrideMonth
Mindful Moves: Kid-Friendly Yoga and Peaceful Activities for a Happy, Healthy YouIn this conversation, Stanley and Cardoza discuss how the yoga industry has historically excluded people in marginalized communities, how it could evolve toward inclusion, and why a home practice can provide space to fully embody and accept yourself for who you are. To start, I would love for you both to share how you found your way to yoga in the first place and how your practice has evolved amid the pandemic.
A really good friend of mine was like,"You should come to a yoga class with me!" and I really thought that yoga was just for thin white women. I didn't know that it had anything to do with me or anybody who looked like me, but I ended up going to class. And what I most appreciated about it was that every part of it seemed impossible to me. It seemed like everybody had gotten together and practiced together beforehand to come to class to do it all in tandem.
Yoga pushed the boundaries of what I thought I could do. And that is why I continue to return to my practice to this day: It's just because it always gives me that exact same medicine. Ultimately, yoga is about how we connect with each other by how we connect with ourselves. To accept yourself means to accept the parts of yourself that puritanical culture would hope to breed out. We live in a very puritanical society where divine sexuality and sensuality and eroticism are cast down as being dangerous and bad and scary and problematic. So if you're in a process of self-acceptance through yoga, then acceptance of that which has been deemed dangerous and bad is inevitable.
