Derik discusses Glo’s founding years with the first teacher he approached, Jo Tastula. Based in Western Australia, Jo talks to Derik about her unique upbringing, how it changed the way she teaches, and the ups and downs of her journey to becoming a yoga teacher. She shares how her practice has helped her create a sacred space for healing during some of her most difficult moments: losing both parents, pregnancy, and parenthood. Jo shares in-depth anecdotes about her own journey to becoming a yoga teacher, from mysticism and plant medicine to the conundrum of defining yoga: “Just when you think you’ve got it, it slips through your fingers.”
