FELLOW TRAVELER: A person who travels with another. Merriam Webster
The Society of Fellow Travelers is a group of like minded people who are on a “Spiritual Journey” looking for spiritual meaning through different activities such as yoga, tai chi, capoeira, meditation, book discussions and speaker series.
The Society of Fellow Travelers began in August 2015 when many of my fellow yogis decided to practice yoga at my dance studio, Two Left Feet Dance Studio 1405 Unit N Kiln Creek Pkwy. Newport News, Va. 23602
After our first meeting we decided to have a yoga class on Sunday mornings, followed by a guided meditation class. The yoga class was to be a meditative, gentle yoga class. The meditation was scheduled to last approximately 30 minutes. Yoga starts at 9:30 am and meditation begins at 11:00 am.
About 6 months later we started studying different religions and spiritual paths. We then started having monthly covered dished suppers where we brought in speakers to discuss our religious/spiritual findings. Some of our topics were meditation/contemplation, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. In January 2018 we started Tai Chi Classes, taught by Paul Salgado. Paul has been a student of Tai Chi for over 40 years. In August 2018 we formed a partnership with Carla Hisatugo, and began offering classes in a Brazilian Martial Art Form called Capoeira.
