QTBIPOC Yoga

Yin Yoga with Meesha is a highly restorative and gentle yoga class that combines pranayama (breath work) and asana (postures). Each posture is held between one and five minutes. Holding poses for longer periods of time allows us to release the connective tissue and fascia, which can result in deep states of relaxation. This is a highly therapeutic form of yoga that also allows us to practice stillness. Stillness is medicine in current times, which ask us to constantly produce and multitask. When we achieve stillness we can have profound experiences of introspection and dhyana (meditation).

Meesha always incorporates philosophy and topical themes during class to ground the practice in tangible ways.

Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or new to yoga, this is a wonderful class for all those seeking a powerful yet gentle session.

Led by Meesha (they/she). Meesha is a diasporic South Asian (Kashmiri and Punjabi) descendant, yoga teacher, artist, disruptor, spiritual seeker, and community organizer. They have dedicated their life to ancestral healing work and queering the healing justice space. They believe communal care, abolition, and land back are paths to co-creating a paradigm shift on Earth towards more justice and peace for all. Find them on Instagram @alchemystic_studio
