Welcome to Sofia Sideways ☀️💗 Here I’ll post about the thing I love most: moving my body! I’m currently in Greece, working towards my 200 hour yoga teaching certification and decided to keep a digital diary of my current and future adventures. Swipe left for my “athletic” resume 🫡 #silly #yoga #workout by @sofia.sideways

August 18th marked one year since my YTT. WOW. I was too busy with finals to even notice, and now here I am (a month late) allowing myself to reminensce. I got a lot of mixed reactions when I told people I was getting yoga certified, and all I can say is that this is one of the truest things I have ever done for me and me only. Yoga means more to me than I will ever be able to put into words, and teaching has quickly become one of the most meaningful things I have ever done. It’s a weird feeling to know I may never be back to a place that now means so much to me, or that I may never see the people that I once greeted every morning, but they will never cease to shape the way that I yoga and will therefore never be forgotten. Thank you to my wonderful teachers, fellow students, awesome roomies, and stray pups! I am grateful for my practice, for the opportunities to share it with others, and for a future of endless learning.

A special shoutout to my mommy! My number one supporter and the woman cheering me on through every step of my yoga journey. The woman who taught me the importance of loving and caring for your body. The woman who always takes the stairs instead of the elevator, hugs trees on her walks, and screams “thank you” at the Universe whenever good comes her way.

She’s a strong believer in saying yes to unique opportunities, and my yoga teacher training truly would not have been possible without her. This video captures her perfectly. During a family trip to Mexico, about two months after my YTT, I barely had to convince her to step away from our holiday adventures to let me practice teaching. She was the only one in my family willing to do it, always excited for an excuse to move her body (she’s the OG girl who can’t sit still). We barely made it through the hour without dying of laughter and it was absolutely perfect.

Mami, gracias por tu apoyo infinito y por creer en mi. Desde ayudarme a poder pagar clases de yoga cuando más las necesitaba, hasta motivarme a perseguir y cumplir mis sueños, has estado a mi lado en cada paso del camino y aún más allá. Te amo 💛 by @sofia.sideways

Yoga will accept you in all forms, all you gotta do is step on the mat.

A year ago, @kirbiina taught me how to hang clean, and now, one whole year later, he’s reteaching me because I haven’t done it since 😅 oops. It’s a major work in progress but workouts with Kirby are always the BEST. Manifesting the day he moves back to San Diego so we can hit our weekly lift sessions again, and perhaps get him to a yoga class or two! by @sofia.sideways

I love creating flows but I can be a bit of a perfectionist and also super indecisive which ends up making it a bit more stressful then I’d like 🥴 (I’m working on it) but here’s a behind the scenes of it anyway 🤍🤍 by @sofia.sideways

Today I taught my first vinyasa flow! 💛
I can’t quite describe how special it was to watch these amazing women, my friends, reach their Bird of Paradise. It’s a feeling I never could have prepared for, but my heart is overflowing with pride for them. I’m so lucky to have been a part of this moment
and hope to one day share the same experience with one of you 💗☺️
Namaste by @sofia.sideways
