Why is an 11-year old teaching my yoga class?

It all started when I was 3. I was a magical ball of energy, bouncing around the house, when my mentor came to me with a sparkle in her eye and said “What happens when you notice yourself breathe?”.I don’t think I even knew what that meant at that time, but I watched her as she took deep inhales and long exhales and found myself doing the same thing. A calm rush of relaxation poured over me.. I know this now because at 11, I have way more language to describe the incredible, remarkable experience of being a kid who is invited to care for and come into touch with their body in a way that is loving, kind and safe.
Why am I teaching yoga? I want to spread this magic and joy and ability to befriend our bodies and maximize their efficiency to EVERYONE, even those who think they aren’t flexible enough, too busy, or can’t afford it. We can all practice and use it.
Yoga means “to connect” and I simply want to create more compassionate human connection in a world that never seems to slow down.

I will be doing a 200-hour Yoga-Alliance certified Yoga Teacher Training at @PranaYogaCenter in San Diego this month to become one of the youngest yoga teachers in the world! My mission is to spread the gift of yoga to EVERYONE.Please follow my journey at Tea the Yogi #yogawithtea #teatheyogateacher

    Tea Sloane is a Bay Area-based yoga practitioner, who has dedicated half of her life (5.5 years in total) to her practice. She officially completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in summer 2017 and is now offering a donation-based class at the Lafayette reservoir as well as classes at local high schools.

    Tea Sloane is accomplished in
    Ashtanga, Vinyasa, and can do that one tricky bridge backbend pose. In an effort to deepen her practice, Tea has studied yoga in multiple cities that start with the letter “s,” such as Stockholm, Sydney, and (S)new York City (the “s” is silent). Throughout her travels, yoga has been a great way to make friends and make her enemies contort themselves into uncomfortable positions. But Tea isn’t just a yoga guru, she’s also a person just like you or me. So when she is not attempting to widen her stiff-jointed parents’ limited range of motion, Tea Sloane can be found cooking, playing basketball, and scootering down the path of enlightenment.

    ​Namaste.
