Yoga DVD: Vinyasa Yoga, A Steady, Mindful Practice
Mimi Kuo-Deemer has been a student of yoga since 1995, and an avid lover of creative movement since 1978, when her mother put her in ballet school for walking with turned-in toes. Mimi mainly teaches a slow, alignment-based vinyasa yoga that is cross-pollinated with Buddhist teachings and qigong. She champions meditation as the answer to just about all of life's most pressing questions, and can sometimes be found lying around on bolsters and blankets doing very little (restorative yoga!) on good as well as not so good days. Her two main teachers in the yoga world, Erich Schiffmann and Donna Farhi, continually humble her with the idea that yoga is the art of living, listening, and learning to embody a deeply spiritual tradition. In 2002, Mimi co-founded Yoga Yard, Beijing’s first and leading yoga studio, which she co-directed for seven years. She now lives in London, and teaches classes, workshops and retreats in the UK and internationally. She is the author of the DVD “Vinyasa Yoga: A Steady Mindful Practice,” and teaches on triyoga’s yoga teacher training program.
