We see her practicing with her dad, her mom, or the family dog, and sometimes alone on her mat. We see her in the garden, on the patio, in her bedroom, even sitting on a gigantic lotus. But no matter what the setting, she relates her yoga to the natural world. She stands like a tree or a mountain and imitates the actions of animals - a fish, a dog, a lion, and a tortoise. She celebrates her connection with the life around her and wants just a bit of attention in return.
