Yoga for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous & People of Color) Communities

BIPOC (Black, Indigenous & People of Color) Yoga is a dedicated space for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to practice yoga in a supportive, culturally aware environment. These classes center rest, breath, and gentle movement, offering space to arrive as you are without expectation, explanation or performance. This is a practice that brings yoga back to its roots of Vedic lineage, in an effort towards decolonization. All levels are welcome.

About the Facilitator:
Arpita is a South Asian yoga teacher and Ayurvedic practitioner whose work is grounded in cultural integrity, social justice, and lived experience. She creates spaces for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to practice without erasure, explanation, or assimilation. Her teaching is informed by lineage, nervous system awareness, and a commitment to honoring bodies shaped by migration, colonization, and resilience. Arpita believes yoga is not neutral, and her work centers reclamation, rest, and belonging as forms of resistance.
