The Origins of Yoga: A Virtual Talk & Practice!

Did you know that the origins of yoga began thousands of years before it appeared in India, rooting back to ancient Egypt? Join me for this fascinating talk and practice led by dear friend, Founder, CEO and visionary of Afro Yoga, Angie Franklin.

Angie shares that, “Kemetic Yoga was developed through decades of research, study and translation of Ancient Egyptian (Kemetic) hieroglyphs and texts…. It's unique emphasis on spiritual rather than physical development sets it apart from Westernized styles of yoga and brings it back to the origins.

The goal of this practice is to move slow and intentionally, with heavy attention to the rhythm of breath, spinal alignment and sequencing.”

Angie will open with an inspiring talk before leading us into a beautiful, restorative practice for your nervous system.

This is not one to miss!
