The faculty and staff of Soma Yoga Institute stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and the protestors across the country calling for an end to systemic racism. We support racial equity and have been and will continue to have a deep commitment to training yoga teachers who promote inclusivity and accessibility. We commit to doing what we can to increase access to yoga’s healing potential in BIPOC communities. To this end, it is with pleasure that we announce our new online Yoga Teacher Training Scholarship for BIPOC Program.
