This donation-based trauma-informed yoga class is for folks seeking better ways respond to the hardness of life and our increasingly agitated/irritated/shut-down/numb/overwhelmed/hurt nervous systems. 

We will experiment with yoga in a way that is designed to support and help us enhance our capacity to respond to the hardness of life with a sense of empowerment, freedom, and dynamic self-awareness.

Experiencing and witnessing such forms of oppression accumulates in our nervous systems and has a way of overwhelming us and disrupting our ability to cope, respond, and function.

Which is why we know we need a healing space where we don’t have to worry about being “othered" or judged or forced to do something or be something that is not aligned with dignity and justice.
In light of everything painful and numbing happening in our lives and in the world, let us come together to rebuild the capacity of our nervous systems.
