YI-WO is a prayer, a habitual ritualistic gaze into the depths of the vast unknowable. YI-WO is a celebration of very purposely selected forms of the connective water sliding pursuits. It's a poem, a place to be or not to be untangled. A space for your time, to possibly honor the practice, this existence and the paths potential dimensional expansive qualities.
