Our Offerings

 
 
 
 

Raja Yoga Teacher Training

Becoming a Raja yoga teacher is a significant commitment, and it's important to find the training that aligns with you. Our trauma-informed teacher training explores the 8-Limbs of Raja Yoga through social justice and antiracist framework that is grounded in self-awareness, community building, and unconditional love.

 

Professional Development

We offer customized workshops for your organization or conference that give participants the opportunity to begin or continue the work of dismantling racism, patriarchy, and capitalism through a lens of self and collective care. These workshops explore a systems-based framework, self-reflection, and allow participants to delve deeper into what healing justice can look like in their personal and professional lives.

Speaking Engagements

Felicia Savage Friedman, Founder and CEO, offers antiracist and trauma-informed keynotes and moderated discussions for your next corporate or community-based event. Felicia’s approach is embodied, joy-centered, and takes audience members on a journey into their hearts and minds to explore what actions they can take to create a more just and loving society. Her talks explore what collective liberation could look like and are rooted in unconditional love for humanity.

 

The Cussin’ Yogini

The Cussin’ Yogini is a pseudonym and a portal for Felicia’s creative expression, including art and soon-to-be books, podcasts, and vlogs. Felicia’s artistic practice is a healing practice – whether expressing through the written word, emoting on canvas, or connecting through collage, it’s in her moments of beingness that the doing of creative expression comes through.

 

our work

Collective healing

We envision a world where all humans practice collective liberation. For us, this means striving to see each other’s humanity and grounding ourselves in love and joy while we engage in dismantling systems of oppression such as racism, patriarchy, colonialism, ableism, and capitalism. Systems of oppression bound and dehumanize us, and this work asks us to explore the intellectual, emotional, embodied, and spiritual facets of this life experience.

We acknowledge that this is a journey and invite folks to come as they are, be with us in community as we investigate our history, and dream about our futures, together.
