Saisha Baskerville is a NYC yoga teacher known for her playful and accessible teaching style and her immense passion for body confident yoga. Saisha fell in love with yoga after over time, practicing made her feel transformation on a mind, body, spirit level. As she deepened her practice, she recognized the lack of examples of yogis that looked like her resulting in her becoming a yoga teacher and founding Thick Thigh Yoga which represents a population that is often missed in the world of yoga. Yogis of all shades, shapes and sizes are welcome in her classes. Saisha's goal is to share her love of yoga and its ability to strengthen, heal and relieve stress for us all. In our conversation for the Women’s Liberation Summit, we explored the following:
1) The more connected you feel to your body, the more connected you feel to life
2) Being patient and realistic about your body’s evolution
3) Using yoga as a vehicle for finding and deepening your relationships
4) Yoga can unlock your ability to be more loving and peaceful
5) Comparison is the thief of your joy
6) So much more!
