(Note: Please bring your own mat, but props will be provided!) Book with ticket option comes with a discounted copy of the book. You will be notified via email when the book is ready for pickup! Facilitator bio: Arriel Vinson started taking her yoga practice seriously in 2021 to counteract her stressful work life. What she discovered was a clearer mind, a desire to deepen her practice, and a calling to make more space for Black practitioners. As a RYT-200, certified by Cityoga in Indianapolis, Arriel hopes to show students that yoga is more than a fitness practice: meditation, breathwork, and asanas create a path toward understanding ourselves, and the world, better. They’re tools for liberation, resistance, and community building. An author by profession, Arriel incorporates journaling and affirmations into her classes to emphasize the constant need for loving ourselves and finding compassion in a society that often encourages the opposite. She is honored to guide you in whatever your yoga practice may reveal.
