An instagram user who goes by the name of Nude Yoga Girl has amassed over 1,34,000 followers on Instagram over a month. No, it’s not what you think. The anonymous model has posted black and while pictures of herself in silhouette in YOGA poses.

Her description reads:

Model, Photographer, 25, Yoga, Art. You are beautiful exactly the way you are. Everything by myself.

The anonymous model and photographer told New York Magazine that she wants to inspire people to do yoga and be comfortable with their bodies:

<p> Maybe they can also find body acceptance from there. Fitness is a big trend at the moment, but it’s all about shaping your body. Yoga is about your inner feelings about yourself. Doing nude yoga gives me a feeling of freedom.</p>

In the interview to New York magazine, the anonymous model said that she has been doing yoga for many years and had discovered her passion in photography over three years back.

When asked if she shoots her own photos she said:

<p>I have a little studio at home. I put everything in place, including my camera settings and lighting, then I ask my boyfriend to take the photo when I’m ready in the pose. He is very kind to help in this.</p>

The model also said she rarely receives comments of a sexual nature, and is trying to redefine the naked body as not just a sexual thing.
