"The tools and wisdom in this book will ripple far and wide for a long time to come. Skill in Action is an incredible blend of wisdom and education, patience and urgency, and inward reflection and outward action."--Carrington Jackson, Off the Mat Into the World Yoga in Action Coordinator and Mentor "This book set my entire soul ablaze. Michelle Cassandra has an authentic and clear way of breaking down the construct of white supremacy and the work we must do to dismantle it on individual and collective levels. This approach to liberation and transformation through yoga gives me hope and fuel in the fight to create a new experience for myself, my children, my community, and the world."--Kelley Carboni-Woods, Charlotte, NC, www.peacefilledmama.com "A perfect text to counter the cultural image of the thin, privileged white women who practice yoga, Johnson's book is meant to explore how to use the practice as a radical tool of change.
It's meant to help find liberation for all bodies and gives space for people to find whatever that means for them within their own lives, marrying the tools of change with the deeply radical roots of yoga. Yoga isn't a practice of complacency. It's one of being and living change--that's right there in the Sutras, and Johnson's book is a refreshing reminder of how yoga isn't just what you do on the mat. It's what you do off it."--Book Riot.
