BIPOC Scholarship in Honor of Isidro Rodriguez
We believe that yoga should be more accessible for more people, and that representation is an important part of making that a reality.
This scholarship is granted in honor of Isidro Rodriguez who was a recipient of this scholarship and graduated from the Yoga Teacher Training in June 2021. Isirdo invested his learning and teaching with playfulness and compassion, and contributed joy and authenticity to our community. We grieve the loss of his presence and dedicate this scholarship to him with hopes that his legacy of generosity will continue to impact the Portland yoga community.
what to expect?
Our curriculum is focused on how to teach asana (postures) in a safe & effective way while contextualizing the practice and teaching of yoga from multiple perspectives including: philosophy & history, anti-racism & decolonization, and queer competency.
We will meet in-person over 12 weekends. In addition to the 12 weekends together, there will be 20 non-contact hours required to complete this training.
