- A.S.H.E.S : We rise through Awareness, Solution, Healing, Empathy and Service Breaking down barriers of common stigmas around PTSD, Racial and Social Injustices, Addiction, Childhood Trauma and more. This Trauma informed Yoga Workshop is designed to explore the many components trauma and the different layers one may experience while facing and or functioning in crisis. Students will be guided through a trauma conscious yoga session with time allotted for Q&A on why several yoga postures are restricted from the trauma practice. It is suggested that participants come prepared with a personal journal, comfortable attire for movement portion of the workshop and an open mind. This practice may challenge some of the traditional yoga asana movements but will enlighten students on how to keenly adhere to what feels right when exploring the eight limbs of yoga.Students will leave this workshop with a greater understanding of self and tangible tools to begin or continue their personal journey on the path towards Shanti.

10:00 AM – Local Studio, Sacred Astoria
- Simply Flow with Kyle DuPreeSimply Flow is vinyasa based class focused on the individual practitioner. A flow that stays true to the dharma, yoga practice not yoga perfect. Realizing that yoga is about finding true strength in simply arriving on your mat. In this class you’ll build alignment that works for you and your flow. Breathing in and out of asanas while building strength both mentally and physically.
11:00 AM – Local Studio, Mindful Harlem
- Meditation: The practice of non-practice with Edward DuncanEssentially, there is a misconception about meditation. The presumption is that there is something to do to get better in order to be less anxious or more calm. The practice does not entail changing anything about you. Through the exploration of our direct experience, we slowly come to the realization that the separate self is an illusion and all that is required is to relax, observe and surrender to what is arising and dissipating from moment to moment.
12:00 PM – Local Studio, Align Brooklyn
