I am a board member and secretary of Amplify and Activate and want to share this organization and our awesome offerings with you.
Amplify and Activate is a nonprofit that hosts interactive, inquiry-based, learning communities that integrate yoga as a form of self-care and social justice. Our goal is to uplift and center BIPOC and LGBTQ voices and teach essential skills for those working towards collective liberation.
Every December we hold a summit that incorporates yoga practices, panel discussions, and presentations from authors and leaders in self-care and social justice such as Rev. Angel Kyodo Williams, Michelle Johnson, and Anana Johari Harris Parris.
Check out this video created after our first annual summit.
This past December, Amplify and Activate held its fourth annual summit titled Let Spirit Lead and we're bringing that amazing work forward each month February through June by broadcasting a presentation from the summit followed by a live sangha (community shareback) to create discussion and answer questions.
This special broadcast and discussion series is a fundraising event that offers a sliding scale donation for admission, starting at $5.
The next session is Yoga of the Mind with Jana Long, co-founder of the Black Yoga Teacher’s Alliance. The broadcast and discussion are happening on** March 12th, 6-9pm EST** Click here for tickets.
You can also catch a live interview with Jana Long and Tracee Stanley, Author and Yoga Nidra teacher, on February 22, 4pm EST on Amplify and Activate's Facebook and YouTube channels.
