What is the historical and cultural context of yoga? • How is yoga used as a form of soft power? • How should we practice yoga today?About this Event
Join the Blue Pandas House for a talk and yoga workshop with scholar-activist and yoga practitioner Dr. Sheena Sood.
Her talk will focus on yoga's relationship to coloniality, racial and casteist supremacies, and structural oppression, how these show up today, and what we can do about it now.
After our conversation, Sheena will guide us through a beginner-friendly session with breath work, yoga asana (postures), and reflexive exercises.
The talk and workshop will be held in Letts Formal on the AU campus.
