About this Event
The Khepera Wellness signature Trap Yoga class followed by Black Boys Om Lounge, hydration station and juice bar cocktails with Eaton Wellness. This combination of high paced, active Ashtanga yoga and deep Southern bass is the experience of a life time. The spiritual practice of yoga, when coupled with the explosive baselines of a soulfully rooted southern sound, feels electric. This experience is for students that embody the Khepera Wellness motto of “Evolve Your Self” – no yoga experience required. The motivational sounds are coupled with caring instruction; this means that you will be given options to challenge yourself at every stage of your practice (beginner to experienced) while being encouraged to listen to your body and breath.
After yoga, join Brandon for an outdoor hydration lounge, refreshing mocktails, and conversations with Khepera Wellness, motivated by the heart of the street. Masks recommended for any unvaccinated folx duing in-person yoga. All are welcome. Brunch and cocktails not included but available. Tickets for in-person yoga will be limited, but virtual tickets are also available.
