Open to all levels of practice, this class will embody asana yoga as an impetus to dialogue with the self and with those in the community. We will explore an investigative practice that allows us to invite our individual ancestors from past, present, and beyond as a method to find honesty with the self and to provide space to those that have guided us to be who we are.
Space is limited and registration is recommended. Limited number of yoga mats available; participants who have their own are encouraged to bring them.
