YogaSix Redondo Beach! What's Your Favorite Thing About Your Body?
YogaSix Redondo Beach - Redondo Beach, CA | Saturday, May 30th, 2026 | 8:30am-1:00pm
My second pop-up was at YogaSix Redondo Beach!
I was so excited to host my second-ever event at my home yoga studio. I was looking forward to seeing my yoga pals and introducing everyone to my sign ◡̈
I had so many beautiful, deep, and powerful conversations this day - a bunch of people entered our raffle and shared what their favorite thing about their body was for the social media series. However, I also had some really beautiful off-camera conversations with members of the studio. It’s always such an intimate and beautiful thing to experience a person answering this question.
I want to extend my gratitude to those of you who stopped by to share with me this day and/or stopped by to chat about my mission and my message. People’s willingness to be vulnerable with me never goes unappreciated.

Stand out words of encouragement:
There was A TON of supportive words shared about what I’m doing with my sign. It was truly wonderful to hear and just another reminder that this project is important and needed.
Patterns I noticed:
I don’t know if it’s because I know so many people at my home studio or because the community at Y6RB is so wonderful, but there was so much less resistance than I’m used to. A lot of people came over to answer my question and hear about what I was doing with my project.
I am, yet again, incredibly grateful to Sara Krish for bringing me into the space, to the owners of Y6 RB, Blaine and Jodi, for allowing me to pop-up, and to Christina and Breanne for helping me set up and keeping me company while classes were in session. Thank you all for helping me spread my message into our collective yoga space ❤️
I decided not to reflect after this experience, because a majority of the people I’d spoken with had agreed to be featured as part of the social media series!
My favorite thing about my body that day was… my smile! And my bodys ability to carry me through each hot yoga class at YogaSix.
More pop-ups to come! And more sign days on the street to come as well! I can’t wait to continue to do this work.
As always, I’ll leave you with this: What’s your favorite thing about your body?

If you want to be a part of the conversation… either reach out to me via email at themegangill@gmail.com to schedule a conversation or fill out this form to share your body image story anonymously.
Do you have a friend, family member, or peer who might want to be part of the conversation? I’d be honored if you could help me spread the word about Continued Conversations
While I’m not a licensed therapist, registered dietician, or medical health professional and cannot speak to body image topics from a clinical, trauma-informed place, I am an expert of lived experience. I’m an academic of my own body, and I’m passionate about facilitating conversations with other humans about their relationships with their bodies. I believe it’s important to continue conversations about healthy body image in creative spaces as a means to heal individuals as well as the collective whole. But just know the information presented in this medium is not professional mental health advice or medical advice, and any questions or concerns you have should always be directed to your healthcare providers.
