African Yoga refers to the Egyptian philosophy of Maat, rooting back to 1350 B.C.E. Ancient Egypt was located in the Nile Valley which includes areas in today’s Ruanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Uganda, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt. Practicing African Yoga can give us the experience of connecting to our ancestors, discovering our inner knowledge and supporting our rising to a daily life deeply rooted in self-confidence and serenity. 

This workshop is practiced to the healing sounds of drums. Rhythmic movements are heating up the body to perform Sanuyaats (postures). Breathing techniques, meditation, and Hikau (mantras) complement the system that serves physical and mental health and the development of deeper consciousness and understanding. 

This workshop is meant as a safe space for Black people of African descent only. This is a donation-based workshop and will be held in German and English language.
