Rashida

Written By Connie Holen

Hometown:
Washington, DC (right up the street in Columbia Heights)

Class Energy:
Welcoming, playful, exploratory

Fun Fact/Talent:
My house has more cats than people and more weaving looms than cats!

A lawyer, social justice advocate, animal lover, and mom, Rashida has enjoyed the freedom found on a yoga mat since she was an adolescent. Practicing yoga in different stages of life has given her an appreciation for the way the practice can be adapted to fit a person’s life and circumstances. Rashida's experience undergoing a mastectomy and reconstruction have further grounded for her the importance of adapting asana to fit a person's body just the way it is. In addition to being a 500RYT, Rashida is also certified as a Yoga for All Teacher and is a Level 1 qualified MBSR teacher. Her classes offer a welcoming space for people of all backgrounds to explore breath, movement, and community. Rashida is Reiki II attuned. When she isn’t wrangling kids, cats, or clients, Rashida enjoys knitting, reading, and vegan cooking and baking.

What I love about Flow:
Being a part of these grounding spaces and communities that support everyone's unique place in their yoga journey, with warmth and openness.
