What is the legacy of the genre/form/style you are teaching?

Afro Flow Yoga® is an embodied practice integrating dance movements of the African diaspora with meditative yoga and live healing music, promoting individual and collective healing in a compassionate, diverse, non-judgmental, inclusive, and safe environment. Afro Flow Yoga® is a unique approach to physical, emotional, and mental wellness. All genders, abilities, ages, and levels are welcome.

 

What background, training, and or relationship do you have with this style/technique/class subject?

Leslie and Jeff uncovered the rich legacy of dances and rhythms that persisted through slavery and colonization, along with the often-overlooked history of yoga in Africa. They created Afro Flow Yoga®, blending Leslie’s expertise in yoga and African and Afro-Caribbean dance with Jeff’s mastery of traditional African instruments. Their practice focuses on empowerment, education, healing, spirituality, and wellness.

Leslie is an Alvin Ailey-trained dancer, yoga teacher, and wellness coach. Jeff is a multi-instrumentalist and composer with extensive global experience.

 

Finish this statement: I am passionate about teaching this style because…

…It was the connection with African spirituality, yogic principles, the intrinsic expression of movement through nature’s elements and a transformational journey throughout Africa and the Caribbean, that inspired Leslie and Jeff to create Afro Flow Yoga® in 2008.
