TEO DRAKE


VRKSASANATree Pose
“Tree Pose is a reminder that one is never bal-
anced, one is always balancing. Balance is not
achieved, it’s momentarily held; the losing and
regaining of balance is the essence of the pose
for me. For children, the joy is in the inevitability
of losing their balance, of falling and getting
back up. Where adults strive for perfection,
children delight in imperfection.”
