My Little Yoginis
Sumpin’ I’m doing this week for the Love of Kettle show, to be snatched up at a very reasonable price in order to benefit the Little Gallery that Could. :)

New Yoga Gig
I’m excited to be adding a few new classes to my schedule! I’ll be joining the folks up at Kenpo Karate Studio in Colleyville, teaching a nice hatha class twice a week, and a restorative class, starting in December. (I also teach on Wed.’s at Cosmic Cafe in Dallas. Come on by!) For the whole yoga schedule at Kenpo check out meetup.com’s listing, Yoga In DFW. I’ll be adding my classes on there soon!
Westside Music Festival
This gallery contains 1 image
Got to teach a little yoga at the Westside Music Festival Sept. 24th. That was a benefit for Resolana, the program that enables us to bring yoga to the Dallas jail. They also do art, dance, anger management, AA, writing. If you are a woman and you think you might [...]
My First Yoga Teacher.
Swami Dev
I recently got to have dinner up at Cosmic (where I teach on Wednesdays) with my old friend, my first yoga teacher, Swami Dev. You’ll never meet a more genuine guy. Just have to be careful, he doesn’t know his own strength and he might hug you so hard it hurts!
Tibetan Sand Painting
Sand Mandala
Got to go see a mandala of the medicine Buddha being made by the Tibetan monks. They come every year to the Crow Asian Art museum, but this is the first time I’ve gotten to see them personally. I got to talk to one of them, his name was Gyatso (just like His Holiness the Dalai Lama) and he was my age. (Eternally 29 of course. Hehe, just kidding. Mid-thirties really.) They were going to destroy this beautiful painting after it was completed, of course. Symbol of the truth of impermanence. And then they would pour this mandala into Turtle Creek when it was all over, to send its blessing out into the waters of the world.
Forces of Nature feature on cravedfw
Many thanks to Stealingkitty for her article about the Forces of Nature show!
“There is a celebration going on at this exhibition and Misha Flores and painting it out loud. I felt great joy while viewing her painting that depicts the connectedness of animal and tree in this living infinity. In brushed motion, a light pastel background sets the tone, and the luminous sun illuminates life. The life consists of delightful painted monkeys, tree, roots, birds, curvaceous naked women, and a variety of other living things swirling together–life. Her Buddhist beliefs feel present in another work featuring a woman with tentacle-like hair in a lotus position.
The beautiful greens and blues play nicely in this piece and continue influencing a feeling of joy while being viewed. I applaud Misha for celebrating life on her painted canvas, and am thankful to experience joy while standing in front of her work.”
