Namaste Windsor-Essex Story by Angelica Haggert I have always been a fan of the team module - the idea that community and a sense of belonging come from activities that actively involve multiple people working together... Yoga breaks that mindset. The practice of yoga has Hindu roots, dating back more than 500 years. The term comes from the root word of yuj, which in Sanskrit means to unite. Since I’d always pictured yoga as a solitary and quiet activity, it was difficult for me to understand how the practice could unite anything - and then I met Jade.
