This week is an in-between-isode,* taking a pause from interviews to bring you this news flash: you know that feeling when your step is light and springy, and other times when you feel like a sack of bricks? It's not in your head. Today, we take a quick peek at the anatomy and physiology of fascia, collagen, stored energy and what that could mean for your running, walking, and stylish footwear.
*Thanks, Tim Ferris.
I'm here with yoga teacher extraordinaire (my words, not hers) Djuna Mascall as we talk dedication, Zen, yoga and its commodification. All part of the continuing practice of knowing reality, including of course the body, as it is.

Contact Improvisation is a form of dance that is unscripted, multi-variable, and rich in information we can glean about the body. In this interview with Martin Keogh, we dive into Contact, and his experience with 1000's of bodies, traveling the world over.
Martin shares some thoughts on what we can learn from the form, and from seeing and listening with our full bodies. He also shares some thoughts on aging, deepening into the body, and even death by beauty.
