Reclaim & Reconnect: Yoga Course from the Samadhi Nest and Sister Shack

6 Hours Yoga Course for the Global Majority

You are warmly invited to join us for the second block of a grounding and empowering yoga course created exclusively for the Global Majority. Whether you're continuing from the first block or joining us for the first time, this space is open to you.

Over the course of three 2 hour sessions, we will deepen our connection with the body, breath, and mind through the philosophy and practices of yoga. This course is a gentle yet powerful invitation to explore yoga as a holistic way of life, not just a physical practice.

Each session includes movement (asana), breathwork (pranayama), meditation (dhyana), and space for reflection, all within a supportive community of shared lived experience. You’ll leave feeling grounded, connected, and equipped with tools you can carry into everyday life. Yoga is a way of life!
