Yoggaton as Empowerment and Decolonial Body Practice

Workshop with Maque Pereyra

Maque Pereyra and District invite you to participate in the research Yoggaton as Empowerment and Decolonial Body Practice: 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.

Further dates 19. + 20. October and 9. + 10. November, 4 - 7:30 pm
