Community Learning Series
Each year, Exhale to Inhale is proud to offer an innovative lineup of continuing education workshops to support the knowledge of our teachers and growing community of training graduates.
Attendees of our trainings learn about the fundamentals of trauma and how yoga can aid and empower survivors in their healing journeys.
The continuing education sessions are refreshers on these key ideas as well as a chance to pick up where training left off, delving deeper into advanced concepts and staying up to date on the most topical material.
The program is absolutely free to all, but we also welcome donations in any amount to help sustain and honor our efforts.
Yoga for Personal and Social Change
with Susanna Barkataki and Julie Fernandez
February 11th | 2 - 3 pm ET | Join on Zoom!
While often practiced for personal well-being, yoga's roots are deeply intertwined with ethics, justice, and community care. In this session, we’ll explore how yoga’s principles can guide us toward self-liberation while addressing social issues such as power and privilege. Together, we’ll reflect on how reconnecting with the essence of yoga can support sustainable personal growth and meaningful social change.
Participants will leave with:
An understanding of how yoga principles such as Ahimsa, Svadhyaya, and Seva can foster personal empowerment, collective healing, and meaningful social change
Knowledge of how power and privilege shape yoga spaces and how honoring yoga’s roots fosters equity and justice
The ability to reflect on one’s relationship with power, privilege, and social responsibility through the lens of yoga philosophy
Practical strategies for applying yoga philosophy off the mat to engage in sustainable social change efforts
