Inside the Yoga Studio


First YogaBC blog posting!


In order to get to know Yoga BC members, I have asked them the ten questions made famous by 'Inside the Actors Studio'. Today, get to know Erin Senior, Yoga BC Board member with her answers to these life altering questions:


1. What is your favourite word? Animate & Facilitate



2. What is your least favourite word? Boring



3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Creatively: Groups or individuals pushing the perceived boundaries of culture and our understanding or experience of “creativity” in unique or unusual spaces. Spiritually: Kundilini Yoga, Canadian poets and writers who uncover the precise words that capture and exclaim the human experience ( Patrick Lane, Tia Mcleanan, Margaret Atwood, Robert Kroetsch, Alister McLeod) Emotionally: Transparency, honesty and my family.



4. What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Creatively: Small limited and conventional thoughts, limited funding Spiritually: Withholding, manipulation and isolation Emotionally: Arrogance and finality



5. What sound or noise do you love? the sound of the piano being played in a large hall after the crowed has left.



6. What sound or noise do you hate? the sound of sires that disrupt the night



7. What is your favorite curse word? I like traditional old school east coast or french curse words- “For the Love of Christ” “Marde”



8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? if I had to pick a new one : Working as a Marine Biologist



9. What profession would you not like to do? a cashier at Ikea



10.If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

I have this image of God standing at the gates jumping up a down,very excitedly flinging his/her/it’s arms shouting “You made it, you made it!” We would laugh out side the gates as God gives me a hug and says, “Just kidding” and then goes to close the gates and then laughs out loud and says “NAW.. I got you! Come on in!” God is a bit of a joker and likes to kid around in my books, always keeping me on my toes.
