Paloma: No Woman, No Cry

“I am my own muse, I am the subject I know best. The subject I want to know better.”— Frida Kahlo

Youthfulness. What a beautiful blessing. Here we are met today by such openness to life, and all that her future has to offer, Palmoa Tamayo, graces us with her purity of spirit and sublime optimism.

From her early years, being introduced to the Ashtanga yoga practice, to studying in Mysore, and then being called upon as Eddie Stern’s assistant, Paloma has crossed a chasm to touch into the depth of her yoga practice.

It’s no small feat to be born in Mexico to a middle class family, forsaking the obvious path, to step outside one’s designated station to make new roads into a future yet defined.

It is here in the land of the unknown that we meet Paloma, in all her brilliance, to talk about where she has been and where she might go as she steps into an undermined future.

How wonderful it is to feel like the world is your oyster and that all good thing lay in wait.

Today, you’ll be reminded of the joyfulness of youth and the purity of the practice. What beauty. What innocence. What joyfulness there is to behold on the other side of cynicism and age.
