Taina continues her residency as part of the teaching staff at Sojourn Healing Collective for their Summer and Fall 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training containers to teach modules on the History of Yoga and Yoga & Social Change.

History of Modern Yoga - A discussion of Yoga's historical origins and process by which Yoga became an important phenomenon in the cultural life of America and the West.

Yoga & Social Change - The importance of Accessibility, Diversity, and Equity in the Yoga Studio and Beyond. Social justice change-making operates on shared values of breaking-down divisive barriers and challenging limiting beliefs about intersectional identities such as ability, race, class, gender, sexual orientation, body image, and criminal background. With a concentration on decolonization, advocacy, and community building, we will discuss how to engage Yoga philosophies and practices as tools for personal growth and powerful instruments of communal transformation.

"The truth is great teaching comes from great personal practices. This experience is designed to expand you through the heart and root wisdoms of Yoga, while encouraging your personal expansion in finding these practices and truths within your daily life.”
