Bio - Why I Teach Yoga

Hey, my name is Ty and I started teaching yoga back in 2022.  When I tell people I teach yoga, the most common question I get is, “What made you want to do that?”  “Well,” I respond, “they wouldn’t let me work at Orange Theory because I’m not hot enough, and crossfit wasn’t an option because I’m not jacked enough, so here I am.”

Jokes aside, the real reason is I love people and I want to help people.  I feel corny saying it, but it’s true.  So wtf does any of this have to do with yoga?  Good question!  My plan is to donate 100% of any money I earn teaching and share with people how they can help out along the way.  Saving the world through dance yoga!

So how can you help?  The most obvious answer is come to a class.  When and where you can find us is listed in the bio.  Another is to like this page and share it with your friends.  I know your eyes are probably rolling into the back of your head at that last sentence.  Listen, I’m not thrilled about being in my thirties begging for people to subscribe to my Tik Toks either, but the more people we can get onboard, the more cool stuff we can do in the future.  Hate yoga and think it’s for dirty drum circle playing hippies and are completely off the grid from social media?  Idk how you’re reading this, but tell a friend in person and be on the lookout for a future post on ways you can help out, which I will link below.

Also, be on the lookout for progress updates and dumb videos of me embarrassing myself.  To me, a lot of philanthropy feels too serious and stuffy, prioritizing guilt and shame. This seems counterintuitive to introduce suffering within yourself while trying to reduce it in others.  So our goal is to keep things light and hopefully make giving a little more entertaining and accessible.  Trying not to be too much of a “goody two-shoes” over here.  (Side bar: what does that even mean and who were these people that thought they were so much better than us because they had two shoes??  Did everyone really just used to walk around with one shoe?  Seems like a weird thing to brag about.)  Either way, I’m excited to embark on this journey with y’all and I think we can achieve some remarkable things together!  So don’t be a one shoed piece of shit, and give this instagram a follow and a share it with a friend!

Love you all!

Ty
