YOGAMOTIF

Resistance begins as an internal narrative you tell yourself. Black women have always resisted. -

At YOGAMOTIF, we think of yoga and creativity as something we study and practice together.

A creative wellness classroom isn't about getting the right answer. It's about making space to explore, ask questions, try something new, and learn from one another! Every person brings a different perspective, a different story, and a different way of creating.

As we celebrate Juneteenth this month, we're also honoring the ways gathering, creativity, and collective joy have long been expressions of freedom. Play isn't separate from liberation, it helps us imagine and create the kind of world we want to live in. If you're interested in learning more about play and liberation you can read our blog post at yogamotif.com!

How are you making space for play this month?

When was the last time you did something simply because it delighted you?

This month at YOGAMOTIF, we're exploring the relationship between play and liberation, and how creativity, celebration, and imagination can help us envision new possibilities for ourselves and our communities.

If you've ever needed permission to be a beginner, to be curious, or to let joy lead for a while, this is your playful invitation!
