The yoga class, amidst the soothing sounds of nature, begins seated with postures close to the ground to feel the connection with the breath and basic balancing techniques to center yourself. The balancing in the standing portion of the practice teaches you how to hold yourself, refine alignment, and distribute weight, as well as use your gaze, or dristi, to keep your mind anchored in the present moment and the body safe. When the body can balance safely, the mind is in harmony, and the spirit is free.

The documentary is a celebration of their rich ancient culture, and a visual document lamenting their traditions that could vanish, if the caribou disappear.
