BECKY THOMPSON (she/her)

I am yogi, poet, and scholar who sees yoga as a way of creating life-giving energy in a troubled world.

I have been teaching locally and internationally for many years (Thailand, China, Greece, Canada and elsewhere) and am grateful for the communities that yoga nurtures.

My books include Survivors on the Yoga Mat: Stories for Healing from Trauma and Teaching with Tenderness: Toward an Embodied Practice.

What You Can Expect From My Classes

I teach spirited, vinyasa flow classes that energize the five sheaths of the body (physical, mental, emotional, energetic and bliss body). The classes are hand-tailored to the yogis who come. All classes are designed for new and experienced students to promote immediate and long-lasting health. As Angela Davis has written, “Yoga reminds us that without deep, abiding practices of self- care, there can be no radical social transformation.” Music and laughter are provided. Come as you are, all of you.
