Greetings, New Orleans. Beginning in January of 2015, I will be leading a Q***r & Trans* yoga class on Friday evenings at Epic Yoga from 6-7:15pm. While straight allies are welcome, this class is intended to be a safe space for Q***r folks, Trans* folks, gender deviants, and anyone who walks in to a yoga studio or gym and immediately feels like they don't belong. Classes are sliding scale, $5-$15, please don't let not being able to pay for yoga keep you from coming. Your presence alone is valuable and more than enough. The class is designed for all levels, with a strong focus on beginners. We will also discuss the practice of yoga and how we can embrace it mindfully from a decolonization perspective. It's gonna be great. Hope to see you there.

A great introduction to education around yogic practice and cultural appropriation. Please watch!

nisha ahuja explores yoga and cultural appropriation in this film by Toby Wiggins. "What is cultural appropriation? What are its roots? Who benefits from cultural appropriation? What strategies are there to address colonialism?"
