Yoga Master Tao Porchon-Lynch Shares Wisdom and Yoga at The James Hotel
October 3 & 4, 2017 – The iconic 99-year-old yoga master Tao Porchon-Lynch joined The James Hotel NoMad in their wellness activation initiative. As a boutique hotel, James Hotels in New York and Chicago are making healthy living is a big part of the brand offering yoga mats and a meditation cushion in every room among other things.
First, on Tuesday night, Tao shared her wisdom in our popular Conversation with a Master talk which I am always honored viagraoverthecounter to moderate. It was held in the lounge to the right of the lobby which created an intimate fireside chat setting. My mom, Janie Sykes-Kennedy, was there and shared insights on the writing process of Tao’s award-winning autobiography, Dancing Light: The Spiritual Side of Being Through the Eyes of a Modern Yoga Master. My sister, Sheila Kennedy Bryant, was also there. We all got to stay at the hotel overnight.
On Wednesday morning, Tao taught a yoga class in Madison Square Park which is right near the hotel. Regina Lee assisted along with myself. It was a wonderful group of yogis and Tao enjoyed the outside park venue. There were a number of yoga teacher friends there including Molly Heron, Sharon Lopez and Ghylian Bell. The whole experience was a wonder to behold, espescially in the presence of a renowned yoga master such as Tao. Thank you to The James Hotel and Storey teams for being great hosts!
