What to know about Black Yoga Instructor care
Yoga has evidence for low back pain, anxiety, and sleep (NCCIH). Black practitioners have built extensive trauma-informed yoga spaces, which matter in a studio culture that has often failed to include bigger bodies, Black hair, and the specific traumas carried in Black bodies. Instructors with trauma-informed, prenatal, or chair training make yoga accessible far beyond the typical flexible-white-woman archetype commercial yoga promotes.
