Join us for a unique book collective where we dive deep into "Skill in Action: Radicalizing Your Yoga Practice to Create a Just World" by Michelle Cassandra Johnson. This isn't your typical book club โ€“ we're taking our time (March-November!) to truly absorb and apply the lessons, both on and off the mat. ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธโžก๏ธ๐ŸŒ
This collective is about more than just reading; it's about embodying the principles of yoga to create a more just world. We'll explore themes of social justice, equity, and collective action, and discuss how we can put these ideas into practice in our daily lives.
What to Expect:
Thoughtful discussions: Share your insights, reflections, and questions in a supportive and engaging environment.
Community building: Connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about yoga and social justice.
Action-oriented learning: We'll explore ways to take our learning off the mat and into the world.
No pressure: Come as you are, no yoga experience or prior knowledge is required.
Event Details:
First Gathering: March 24th, 7-9 PM
Location: 137 Laxton Rd, Lynchburg (Park in the Back Lot)
Cost: FREE!
This is a FREE event! No sign-up is necessary. Just bring your enthusiasm and, if you have it, your copy of "Skill in Action" with your notes and reflections. No yoga mat is required.
Please purchase the book directly, if possible: https://www.skill-in-action.com/
We look forward to learning and growing with you!
