There is no such thing at being good at yoga in my world!! I am here to teach you how to practice self-care and radical rest, which I know you need.
The only requirement to attend this day long retreat is a willingness to learn. Especially to learn how systems of oppression keep us from achieving our true potential, how diet culture holds us back from body acceptance, and how to align your yoga practice with social and restorative justice.
