Event description

AMANI YOGA: Nervous System Reset: for BIWOC
 Please arrive by 2:50 pm  

Somatic yoga is the embodiment of mind body harmony

Slow down in this 90 minute class designed to carve out time for
rest. We will begin with gentle movement to prepare the body for
restorative poses that will encourage your nervous system to dip into
its parasympathetic state, cultivating the opposite of stress.

The name AMANI YOGA means peace in Swahili & best wishes in 

AMANI YOGA came out of a desire to create a culturally inclusive yoga space for BIWOC to feel safe and have a sense of belonging and experience how yoga can contribute to racial stress healing and well-being.

This offering includes

  • A somatic yoga practice- providing deep rest, a practice which you can take away and practice daily (all postures are accessible to all bodies and all levels of experience, especially beginners)
  • An exploration of how racial stress impacts our body’s nervous system and how yoga can relax the nervous system in a safe nurturing setting.

    Please arrive by 2:50 pm
