Te Aro Astanga Yoga is surviving thanks to you! I hope to see you all for a fantastic 2026.

    Thanks Mike – I always enjoy your blog posts… it’s the only blog I read! Being gentle to oneself is a lesson Im coming across a lot in the world of new parents… plays into that old ‘get your oxygen mask on first’ plane metaphor, but in our desire to be seen as selfless and humble we sadly ignore this. Anyway, hope you’re well and looking forward to getting back into practice soon!
