Featuring Noha Arafa, Jess Nabb & Sherene Cauley, hosted by M Camellia

Join experienced, neurodiverse teachers Noha Arafa, Jess Nabb, Sherene Cauley, and host M Camellia for our March 2022 Accessible Yoga Community Forum on Neurodiversity and Yoga. Panelists will offer a deep exploration into the vastness of neurological biodiversity and patterning. Discussion topics will range from the depths of cultural conditioning and ways that systems of oppression and other traumas impact the brain, to non-neurotypical thought and processing frameworks, and what we can all learn from neurodiverse people about awareness, the senses, emotions, and community care. The panel will also offer best practices for language and accessible teaching, ways of combating ableism both internally and externally, and other practical knowledge aimed at cultivating greater inter-community understanding and more affirming spaces for neurodiverse practitioners.

The panel discussion will last 90 minutes, including some time for audience questions. Participants are invited to stick around after the panel concludes for a 30-minute social mixer and networking session, with the option to share their own experiences and meet other community members who are working at the intersection of neurodiversity and yoga.

Access to the community forum is free. Learn more about this event and the other Neurodiversity events this month.
