I never met Tao but was inspired by her as a yoga teacher, dancer, and her radiant way of being. She modeled what it looked like to live large, and not play small. She blessed us with her beauty and presence 101 revolutions around the sun. I'm grateful to have been touched by her positive impact in my lifetime. RIP Tao...you are greatly missed 🙏🏽 . . #repost @taoporchonlynch100 With great sorrow and heavy hearts, we are writing to let you know that our beloved Tao passed away this morning, peacefully and without pain. As she would say, she is now dancing her way to the next planet. • We are planning a wonderful celebration of Tao’s life in the Spring. . . . . 📸 @robertsturman / @taoporchonlynch100 — From the #Tao💯 celebratory portfolio. . . . #tao #riptaoporchonlynch #yoga #yogateacher #beauty #grace #inspiration #iwishimether #lifeisshortWeek 3 Day 19 #febustand #yogachallenge Worked up to 25 #butttaps a day!

(Technically, your lower back or sacrum is tapping the wall but, butt taps sound better than "sacrum taps" 🤪😂) . . 💪🏾💥 When I want to condition for handstands away from the wall, especially jumping up with both legs together into handstand, these butt taps tone up the legs, arms, core, hands and fingers. It also gives the body and brain the muscle memory of aligning the legs above the hips, shoulders and wrists. Give it a try! 10-25 butt taps every day, 6 days/week. 🤗 Give yourself a rest day from the weight bearing on the wrists and shoulders. Have fun and tag me with #febustand and #butttaps ! 💪🏾💥❗️ . #yoga #strength #balance #getupsidedown #tuckjump #handstand #vinyasa #poweryogs #powervinyasa #whybaptisteyoga #yogavideo #yogatutorial #practiceandalliscoming😂😂😂 #tbt #soundon #swipeleft #yogabloopers #acroyoga #whattheheck #girlsjustwannahavefun #yoga #whatwasithinking #yogapracticenotyogaperfect #livelovelaugh #whybaptisteyoga #portugal #yogaretreat #beachyoga #outdooryoga #bloopers . 🤷🏽♀️ when we #yogateachers had free time during our Portugal yoga retreat. We flow and breathe and focus and get all zen...AND get messy, silly, boss each other around, literally climb on each other like puppies, and can't stop giggling! 🤪🤣 Miss playing with you Jill and Mary!! 😜😍 @namaslay_always @jillannkramek . . Posted @withregram • @namaslay_always I just want to spend the rest of my life laughing 💫 🌊Week 2 Day 9 #febustand #handstandprep #forearmplank #handstandconditioning Hold forearm plank 3 sets, 5 breaths each. Or hold 10 breaths hovering one foot/leg off the floor 5 breaths each leg. Keep tadasana alignment in body with feet, legs, and core engaged and spine long with chest and top of head reaching forward to wall or jungle trees in front of you. 🌴🤣 Create an "11" with the forearms and stack shoulders on top of elbows. Strengthen the shoulder girdle by pressing forearms down into ground and keep elbows in line with shoulders (watch if elbows slide wider than shoulders.) Relax and breathe. Additional challenge: accept your practice and body as it is AND as it is not. Maybe even post a pic in your bikini and dismiss the thoughts that tell you you're not bikini-ready! 🤪💖 #stepoutofyourcomfortzone #yoga #yogapracticenotyogaperfect #practiceandalliscoming #whybaptisteyoga #puntademita #mexico #junglegirl #loveyourbelly #loveyourbody #selflove #acceptance #vulnerable #doitanyway #courageous #strong #fitover55 #lovewhatgodgaveyou
