Transformation Station: Accountability Circle for White* Yoga Leaders
*This circle is especially for white, white-passing, and white-privileged people, but any yoga leader is welcome to attend.
For yoga leaders already in the process of examining their own privilege and complicity. Does not take the place of antiracism training. Yoga leaders with white privilege are being called upon to decolonize your practices and yoga spaces. Some of you have been doing this work all along and some have just begun to learn the harm that colonization, commodification and white-washing of yoga have caused and to unlearn your own harmful mindsets and behaviors that perpetuate oppression. Either way, the work and journey of anti-racism is lifelong.
This circle is for processing and sharing the inspiration and challenges that come with unpacking and unlearning racism as a white yoga leader during this time, and to hold each other accountable in the spirit of helping to foster safer, braver, healing, liberated yoga spaces. Circle themes will be guided by anti-racism readings from BBIPOC thinkers and leaders.
To be clear, this circle is for yoga leaders who have already begun the work of examining their own privilege and complicity, and does NOT take the place of anti-oppression training.
