Ritual Inspiration: Rima Rani Rabbath - NYC Yoga - SOUK Studio

The striking Jivamukti yoga teacher expresses the essence of her practices and what keeps her seeking love and connection in all things.

Her raspy, devotional laugh slips out as she says, “I think you all know what I want.” Her implied answer is love.

Rabbath is a beautiful Lebanese-born yoga teacher who teaches at Jivamukti NYC and leads teacher trainings for Jivamukti Yoga around the world.
