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!

Hello hello! I love vacation!

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

Yoga on vacation is necessary when you have beautiful surroundings!

April 2014 – Photos Taken by James Yu in San Francisco, California

Love the view of the buildings from Yerba Buena Center!

It’s never too young to start yoga!

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

Trying to be vertical with the building behind!

“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

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

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

Appreciating beautiful Australia skies in Extended side angle.

Arms and legs can be interchangeable =)

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

An arm and leg hold variation in Balancing Half Moon.

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

Just another tree sprouting from the ground =)

My first real “headshot” photo.

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

Honoring the gift of movement.

Finding a bit of peace and serenity in nature.

Cherry blossoms are my favorite springtime flowers!

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Trying to match the angle of the tree behind me!

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

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

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.

Babies almost kissing (or mamas…).

Acro-Yoga – flying like superman!

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

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

A pair of pigeons with their proud mama!

A little bit of Acro Yoga with Sherry Han.

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

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

Headstands work in every setting =)

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

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

Handstand!

Scorpion forearm balance on the lunch tables.
