Research on Yoggaton as Empowerment and Decolonial Body Practice

Workshop with Maque Pereyra

The practice of Yoggaton combines Yoga&Reggaeton. It is a movement practice which works on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. Through a series of exercises, Yoggaton brings together yoga asanas and spiritual principles, Andean spirituality, fitness, guided meditation exercises and Perreo – a dance to reggaeton similar to the Twerk. Yoggaton offers intensive aerobic training as well as the opportunity to work on self-healing and self-realization through the development of consciousness and physical strength, fun and sensuality. The aim of the practice is to promote a deeper awareness of the unity of body, mind and soul in order to develop a complete self. The research is conducted in a series of theoretical and practical workshops.
If you would like to participate in this workshop series, send us a short statement to: yoggaton@gmail.com. Black, Indigenous and People of Color and people identifying somewhere in the FLINT (Women, Lesbian, inter, non-binary, trans) spectrum are prioritized within the registration process.
