I am working with The Lotus Seed School: a non-profit whose goal is to bring Yoga and movement arts to the underserved of the Portland metro area. We offer public classes by donation, an affordable teacher training and are working on launching other projects. One exciting project that I am joining the Lotus Seed in is teaching Yoga to the members of Cirque Du Soleil. I am continuing to hone my circus skills, taking acrobatic classes at Do Jump and practicing poi and staff. I will be joining a Polynesian dance troupe where I will be spinning poi. I'll also be joining the Oregon Fire Conclave to perform at Burning Man this year. I am working with a group of women stilters and we will walking tall at the coming Earth Day celebration here in Portland.
