I'm grateful for my childhood dance teachers for being inspirational and also for my mom for enrolling me in class when I was 4. Dance class was such a huge part of my childhood, it started my love of stretching and fitness. It's still a huge part of me today. I will always remember Miss … Continue reading November's Yoga Challenge – Healing Hearts – Week 2

New York Comic Con 2014
This was my first year at the New York Comic Con and I took a depressingly small amount of pictures. It was jam packed, hot, and a little confusing, but it was a lot of fun. We went with a plan, which didn't really work out, but we were okay with that. I got to talk … Continue reading New York Comic Con 2014
October Yoga Challenge – Let's Get Flexy – and New Yoga Goal
A new month means a new yoga challenge, and I'm excited for this one. For September, I did two challenges, but they ended up having most of the same poses and for the other one I chose, I found the hosts didn't always post the poses the night before like Kino and Kerri (beachyogagirl) always … Continue reading October Yoga Challenge – Let's Get Flexy – and New Yoga Goal
DC Vegfest 2014
This past Saturday was the DC Vegfest sponsored by Compassion Over Killing. I only realized it the Monday before, so it was a wonderful surprise and a totally spur of the moment trip. The day was a total blast and even though it was a bit hot, the weather was beautiful. It's been announced that there … Continue reading DC Vegfest 2014

Bethlehem VegFest 2014
It's been a week since this year's Bethlehem VegFest and I'm already excited about next year. Just like last year, being in a place where you know everything is vegan and nothing is off limits is an amazing feeling. There was no walking around looking for a place that sold only salads or veggies, or possibly a … Continue reading Bethlehem VegFest 2014
August Yoga Challenge – She's Got Legs – Week 2
Day 8: Marichyasana A. Day 9: Marichasana B. Day 10: Ardha Baddha Padma Paschimottanasana. Half-Bound Lotus Seated Forward Bend. (Even though my picture is missing the bound part...oops.)

Summer Splits Final Week
I really loved the summer splits challenge. It was a good combination of splits, hip openers, and arm balances. Below, I've posted the final few poses and then a before and after shot of Lord of the Dance pose. Want to see a HUGE improvement in this one? Click here. I'm using the wall, and … Continue reading Summer Splits Final Week
She's Got Legs August Yoga Challenge
I'm so excited for this upcoming challenge. The goal is to be able to put your foot/feet behind your head (like pictures #27 and #29), so saying I'm excited is an understatement. I've always been able to get my leg up, but I have this crazy fear it's going to get stuck behind my head … Continue reading She's Got Legs August Yoga Challenge
