Welcome to our new website. Thanks to Ximena Pinilla for her classic,
streamlined design and functionality. Thanks to Jill Campbell for helping make this happen. Jessie and I are excited about
acroyoga in all its’ forms and names, because it is so fracking
beautiful and has enriched our lives profoundly.
This makeover
is another chapter in our acroyoga journey, a testament to the fact that
our acroyoga children have grown-up and are creating children of their
own. We are both proud parents, happy to see our off-springs strike out
on their own and make their mark on the world.
The desire and
need to break out of social imposed thought patterns and reactions was
what attracted us to each other in the first place. This is what still
fuels the acroyogamontreal style; an awareness, desire, commitment and
organizing to change the social, political and economic situations and
institutions that keep us separate from each other. Revealing our
humanity and building community 1 person at a time.
This is the
power of acroyoga combined with a social consciousness rotted in
reality. The seed has sprouted; let us care for the sprout so it will
become a strong tree that can support us all. A tree we can return to,
to lean on, climb on, play under or find shady respite, deep meditative
silence, a warm embrace; to nourish us as we live our daily lives.
Long live acroyoga in all its forms and expressions!
