breakti at summer solstice

Posted: June 15, 2015 by sasha nelson

breakti crew nycI am honored to represent Breakti® at Solstice in Times Square: Athleta Mind Over Madness Yoga on Saturday, June 21st!

We’ll be on stage before the 9 am, 2 pm, and 4:30 pm classes.

In the Breakti® practice, we introduce the concept of fearlessness and compassion within the realm of similarities between yoga and break dance.

Come watch a literal translation of this as we give you a taste of what it’s like to blend vinyasa with hip-hop, and funky beats! If you can’t make it, it will be live streaming here.

I’ll be dancing with a truly excellent crew, please come say hello after each performance. Tag me and #breakti on social media if you snap a photo!:

Natasa “Leggy B” Babic

Natasa stepped onto the mat for the first time in 2002, and experienced an unbelievable feeling of familiarity and belonging which led her to believe she had been there before. She has been practicing on and off the mat ever since, quieting the mind, nurturing body and soul in order to find peace and wisdom within. Natasa’s professional dance career in Vienna transitioned into a career in acting, which has culminated teaching yoga in Brooklyn and New York City. Yoga helps her to see clearly again and again, leading her out of darkness.
