Yoga & Implicit bias towards thinness and pose perfection!

There's a good reason why the world needs curvy yoga teachers if you have never had a body like ours you can't imagine the limitations we face. 

Like H cup breasts that almost smother you in plow pose 😂🧘‍♀️ 😂🧘‍♀️😂🧘‍♀️ #keepingitreal

The implicit bias towards thinness and perfection in pose performance displayed by many in the mainstream yoga industry is not inclusive practice. 

To those kind of instructors I say:

"Be better starting today" 

"Aim for inclusivity and acceptance!"

"Modifications to poses aren't a cop out! They are a necessary health management tool!"

"You need to have an honest conversation with a curvy yogi and be willing to listen to a varied point of view."

I am a proud curvy yoga activist, you will not stifle my yogic joy with your inflexible thinking.
