Hello, for those new here, I’m Taisha ☺️

For most of my life, movement meant performance. ⚡️

I was a collegiate athlete, then an Ironman athlete, and now a hybrid athlete. 🏊🏼‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️

I learned how to push, endure, and keep going. And professionally, I lived much the same way — moving fast, building, always reaching for what was next. 📈

Then yoga found me. 🙏

I thought it would make me more flexible, help me recover, maybe make me a better athlete and honestly it did. ✨

But I didn’t expect it to make me a better person, find calm in chaos and enjoy the practice where ever I am. 🕊️

Yoga taught me that strength isn’t always about pushing harder. Sometimes it’s knowing when to soften, breathe, and stay. 🫶🏼

@taishainpractice is where those worlds collide — hybrid training and yoga, intensity and stillness. 🚴🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️

I’m excited to share my journey, the training, education and most importantly what I’m building next so together all of my worlds can collide. 🌎

Because maybe we don’t have to choose.

And if you’re finding your own balance between the two, I hope you see a little of yourself here too. 🫶🏼

Always in practice 🕊️

never been interested in looking the part.
in practice or in life.
just bringing my own edge to balance. 🖤

I’ve been thinking about how much energy we spend holding onto things simply because they once mattered.

Maybe the question isn’t whether it mattered. Maybe it’s whether it still belongs. 🕊️🫶🏼✨

when sitting with it wasn’t working…

we’re often taught that meditation looks like stillness. but as a hybrid athlete, i’ve found some of my quietest moments in movement.

sometimes the body gets still so the mind can quiet.
sometimes the body needs to move first. 🧘🏻‍♀️

happy friday x

lately, my thoughts have been a little loud. a little heavy.

practicing santosha — contentment with what is. learning that acceptance doesn’t always look like peace. sometimes it’s simply allowing yourself to be where you are.

today, the practice is feeling it. 🕊️

we’re so often defined by one version of ourselves.

the magic is in the duality —
the freedom to be all of it. 🕊️

monday, but make it second sunday.

learning that freedom can be a practice, too.

movement without rules.
expression without reason.
a little less structure.
a little more play. ⚡️

wherever I am. 🕊️

a different kind of ritual. ⚡️

building strength was my first practice — moving hard, pushing limits + doing it in community.

this page is about both sides of strength: the hybrid athlete + the stillness I’ve found through yoga. 🧘🏻‍♀️

now I’m learning what happens when the two come together. maybe I’m building it, too. 🕊️

i’ve spent most of my life knowing how to push.

lift heavier. run farther. train harder.
strength was always something i could measure.

the last few months looked different. i stepped away from weights almost completely and followed what my mind was asking for — more yoga, more control, more intention.

now i’m finding my way back to lifting and hybrid training, but i’m not leaving any of that behind.

turns out, i didn’t need to choose between softness and strength.

i’m learning to build both 🕊️

still carrying a little of last night’s practice with me this morning.

we closed slow flow yoga with Radhe Radhe. @jonoldrowe shared its meaning with us, and for the first time in a long while, I cried at the end of class.

we often close with namaste — an acknowledgment of the light in one another.

but radhe radhe feels different.

Radha embodies divine feminine love — devotion, longing, surrender. the softening of the heart and a remembering of what was already there.

maybe that’s where I am in my practice right now.

less searching.
less becoming.
more softening into what’s already here.

maybe that’s part of the practice for all of us —
sometimes becoming is simply remembering our way back to ourselves.

radhe radhe. 🤍

when i started practicing yoga, it slowly reminded me of how much i loved slow mornings. 🕊️

soft music. incense. meditation. misty mornings with nowhere to be for a moment. 🙏

just a little time to find myself before the day begins. ✨

what brings you back to yourself in the morning?
