About this episode

In this very exciting episode, I got to speak with the inspiring, elegant and graceful Amina Taha. She is someone I have truly looked up to on my yoga journey and I feel so lucky to have been able to attend her classes in person and get to meet her. She is as sweet in person as she appears online. Her dedication to her own practice, her students, and building her career from scratch is inspirational and motivating.

We got to talk about her own journey with yoga and how it led her down the path to teach.  Although it was not necessarily something she originally thought of doing, it has become her dharma to spread the teachings of yoga. Together we discuss some important yogic lessons such as overcoming limiting beliefs, meditation, and finding the answers within our own physical bodies.

Many of us can fall off the bandwagon and stop practicing. We can get bored or injured which sometimes throws us off. However, Amina has been able to overcome these obstacles by finding new ways of moving her body and including that in her practice and in her classes. She now adds many Pilates and bare exercises to her practice in order to keep the spark going.

At the moment she has been very focused on building her application in order to share her love of yoga with the world. She has applied many of the lessons from the yoga practice in all aspects of her life such as motherhood and womanhood.
