2025 Yoga Calendar
Inspired by Elle D'Amico's yoga students, her poem, I Would Practice Anywhere," was written and then created into a 2025 wall calendar. Illustrated by accomplished artist, Aura Vanderwal, each month features an animated, hand-painted image to accompany the playful verses.
Excerpt from "I Would Practice Anywhere"
By Elle D’Amico
I would practice anywhere, on the floor or in a chair.
I would practice in the cold, Sun Salutes then Forward Fold.
A blue, a green, or pink yoga mat, on my face I’ve fallen flat.
I don’t care if people stare, I would practice anywhere.
This richly illustrated calendar is a trove of rhyming simple truths, that will make any yoga lover smile.
