Letter From the Designer: Whale Hello

Letter From the Designer: Whale Hello

If you’ve been reading these letters, you know I am on a path to self discovery; to discover what has always been inside me but I never allowed myself the time to unlock. Well, I went out of my comfort zone and took a solo trip to Alaska, a trip I have dreamed of doing since I was a teenager. Among the countless things Alaska offers, a huge part of the desire was so I could see whales out in the wild. 


Humpback whales, unlike so many other marine mammals, migrate solo. Except, in the very first year of their lives, a calf

Letter From the Designer: Endless Summer Collection

As simple as it may seem, our new collection, Endless Summer, which features our brand new Movement Short and various matching tops, actually has many many layers to how it came to be. And I think it’s important to share with you all. 

I built Yoga Democracy because I wanted to create clothing for people who dared to be different; who didn’t want to be a slave to fashion trends and actually strived to wear things that expressed who they were on the inside.

Human of the Month: Koda Wood

Koda (they/he) thrives in the world of digital art and aspires to be a tattoo artist. They identify as non-binary, trans, agender, and omnisexual to name a few of their identities and sexual orientations! They love to share their story about finding their identity to not only destigmatize the LGBTQ+ community but to empower others to not be afraid to be themselves.

 

What is something that you would like to share regarding Pride or Pride Month?

- I'd like to provide more visibility to genderfluid and abrosexual people. Those identities have given me so much clarity and a sense of security with how I feel about my gender identity and sexual/romantic orientation. It's so important to be perceptive and

Letter From the Designer: Double Rainbow

To all of my rainbow friends living in a world of black and white, this one's for you. 

Every year I design a new rainbow print celebrating pride. Because, first, Yoga Democracy wouldn't be what it is today without the incredible hard work and dedication from people who are part of the LGBTQ+ community. And also, one of my main missions with Yoga Democracy from the start
