I joined Instagram in May 2015 and you can check out all my recent yoga and dance photos on my account @gracelingyu.

July 2014 – Photos Taken by James Yu in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

One of my favorite photos because the tide swept in perfectly to surround the rock I was on!

Yoga on vacation is necessary when you have beautiful surroundings!

A little bit tough on the hands when you’re balancing on a rough and slippery rock!

Hello hello! I love vacation!

It’s easy to keep your head lifted when there’s pigeon poop right in front of your face!

Love the view of the buildings from Yerba Buena Center!

Trying to be vertical with the building behind!

It’s never too young to start yoga!

“Please don’t fall into the fountain, please don’t fall into the fountain…”

August 2014 – Photos Taken by James Yu in Hamilton Island, Australia

Warrior 2 with nothing but beautiful water and islands in front of my gaze…

Taking a chance with Crow-on-a-cliff!

Appreciating beautiful Australia skies in Extended side angle.

I’d love to have this bench setting in my backyard…

I like making up my own yoga poses. This one is Upside Down Forward Fold Hanging From a Wobbly Tree Branch.

These bars were too hard to resist “striking a pose.”

Just another tree sprouting from the ground =)

An arm and leg hold variation in Balancing Half Moon.

Arms and legs can be interchangeable =)

Trying to match the angle of the tree behind me!

Standing and back-bending at the same time… takes a lot of effort!

Cherry blossoms are my favorite springtime flowers!

Dancer Pose: grounding down, reaching forward, and stretching up.

At any moment in our lives, there is always something we can smile about.

Honoring the gift of movement.

Note to self: Forearm balance on a sandy/rocky/gravel-y path is not pleasant on the forearms…

My toes used to touch my head so effortlessly… when I was 3 years old.

There’s nothing like being able to meditate upside down (even when your head hurts a bit on the stone…).

Love love love arm balances! Great for the core, upper body, and mentally challenging.

Finding a bit of peace and serenity in nature.

You have to take a “Jumping Picture” everywhere you go. Why not in a beautiful blooming Spring Garden?

My first real “headshot” photo.

I see you. I honor you. I respect you.

You can see my “third eye!”

March 2013 – Photos Taken by David Heisler in Van Nuys, CA

Getting ready to film my first DVD shoot for Peak 10 Cardio Strength Remix!

One of my favorite handstand leg variations – the double stag.

August 2011 – Photos Taken By Picture People in San Jose, CA

8 months pregnant and still practicing yoga!

Babies like to be right-side up =)

8 months pregnant variation of Pigeon Pose.

July 2011 – Photos Taken By Mr. Liu in Campbell, CA

Double camel pose with Eagle arms.

Lisa Liu (8 months pregnant) and I (7 months pregnant) practiced yoga with Sherry Han to stay healthy!

Acro-Yoga – flying like superman!

A pair of pigeons with their proud mama!

A little bit of Acro Yoga with Sherry Han.

Babies almost kissing (or mamas…).

Who said you shouldn’t do inversions when you’re pregnant?

January 2011 – Photos Taken By James Yu in Cupertino, CA

Although I’m smiling here, balancing in the splits on that rail was nerve-racking!

Handstand!

Upward Facing Dog is the perfect angle for this climbing ladder!

I wouldn’t recommend trying Bakasana Crow Pose on top of the monkey bars…

Headstands work in every setting =)

Scorpion forearm balance on the lunch tables.
