Every Body is a Yoga Body

  • Elk Rock Yoga 10560 SE Main Street Milwaukie, OR 97222 US (map)
I hope you walk away from our time together with some knowledge around the importance of inclusivity of all bodies in your future teachings. Every single human can experience the beautiful benefits of having a yoga practice if we break away from the Western beliefs of what a yoga body ‘should’ be.

Every Body is a Yoga Body

Lexi Marquardt Hill is a licensed clinical social worker in addition to holding a 500 YTT certification. In her professional life, Lexi works with treating individuals who struggle with eating disorders and provides support through healing their relationship with food and their bodies. It was through this work that she began to examine/ challenge the teachings and misconceptions she held around having a “yoga body” and evolved her practice to be more inclusive of all bodies and needs. Lexi will spend time exploring the benefits of yoga in therapeutic settings, as well as how recognizing our own biases and how this can be beneficial for the people we work with.

This virtual event is part of our True Self Yoga Teacher Training Program. $30
