Queer Focused Yoga at Now Yoga
May 19, 2024 2pm – 3pm (every two weeks)
Now Yoga SE Division in Portland, Oregon
Queer focused Yoga is a space to experience yoga with our LGBTQ2SIA+ community. Right now we need a place where we can be fully accepted, where sexuality and gender isn't questioned, where we can be free to express our uniqueness in the world and feel safe.
Yoga invites us to explore ourselves deeply and connect with our divine spirit within. Now more than ever this is why queer yoga exists.
This class is open to all levels from beginners to experienced practitioners. It is welcoming to all LGBTQ2SIA+ and QTIPOC folx. Arrive early to meet each other and form new connections. Book directly through the studio to sign up.
