What to expect at the Queer Yoga Gathering:

• Brilliant Teachings
• Beautiful Community
• Masterful Yoga Teachers
• Deep & Expertly Guided Practice for ALL LEVELS
• Support for YOU However you come
• Transformation
• BIG FUN

Ojah in Sanskrit translates to “Strength of the Body and Senses, Vigor and Vitality and Creation”. These are the things that Ojah is committed to honoring.

Our Queer Yoga Gathering is a day for uplifting, empowering and celebrating our queer community. We will honor our ancestors and call the directions, practice Yoga, Pranayama (yoga of breath) & Chanting. We will eat beautiful organic locally grown foods prepared by masterful hands, indulge in the beauty of our divinely gifted artisans, feel the deep resonance of our powerful performers, and then drop into a full on dance party with DJ’s that will spin us into light. We honor who we are and get to behold the rich community of queer folks locally grown, right here in the Bay ~~ doing what we do with fierce Passion, Swag and Flare. Come out and play all day at our first annual Queer Yoga Gathering.

We are giving 10 Scholarships away to people of color and to low income community members. Contact Us for more information.

If cost is an issue please contact queeryogagathering [at] gmail.com to arrange attendance. No one turned away for lack of funds.

All attendees must pre-register.

Namaste.
