Yoga has been a transformative practice for me, offering peace, balance, and a deeper connection to myself. As a young yoga teacher, I found a way to capture and share my yoga sequences with the world through delightful stick figures. Meet "Toby the Meditating Cricket," a charming yoga stick figure that has become the heart of my business venture. Let's explore how these adorable illustrations have inspired and motivated my practice and the yoga community worldwide.
The Birth of Toby the Meditating Cricket
More than four years ago, I started creating yoga flows with stick figures to help me capture and remember my sequences for my yoga classes. Little did I know that this humble endeavor would evolve into a start-up, bringing joy and inspiration to countless yoga enthusiasts around the globe.
A Stick Figure Unlike Any Other
Toby the Meditating Cricket is not your typical yoga stick figure.

Toby's poses portray determination and effort, making it easy for practitioners to relate and find encouragement in their yoga journey.
Inspiration for Yoga Teachers and Practitioners
The magic of Toby lies in its ability to inspire both yoga teachers and practitioners.

123 Yoga Stick Figures for Everyone

Unlike detailed anatomical representations, Toby's stick figures focus on the essential elements of each pose. By reducing them to key body parts, Toby promotes a sense of acceptance and non-comparison. Practitioners can fully immerse themselves in the flow without feeling self-conscious about how their bodies align with traditional images.
