White women co-opted pandemic yoga. Now, South Asian instructors are taking it back.

Did you hear? We're celebrating two wins in one week!

​

1) Guessing the h8ers who didn't like "White Women Killed Yoga" also won't like this fabulous article called "White women co-opted pandemic yoga. Now, South Asian instructors are taking it back." Honored to be featured alongside the inspirations that are Melissa and Divya. The pandemic has absolutely changed how I share my practice and now look where we are with Tejal Yoga!
​
⭐️ A space that authentically honours the entirety of yoga
⭐️ A celebration of the South Asian voices thats share this practice
⭐️ Space for true connection and building relationships
⭐️ A thriving community that has grown to be powerful
​
Couldn't be prouder of what we're creating, here's to lifting each other up.

Spotlight on People Focused​
Tejal Yoga is fueled by you, our community!
We practice the value of being people focused by building community through invitational sharing, personal engagement, feedback and more!
​
How does this show up?
- Classes are framed in a way that allows space for sharing through check in’s, questions, and discussion before or after class
- Personalized emails and offers based on your interest and your unique circumstance
- You get a say in TY programming through requests of continuous feedback.
​

An Ask for you:​
Our community has members paying in at all levels and there are people who cannot pay for memberships. So we’re asking you to fund one.It’s easy: click here and choose how you’d like to support - Venmo, Paypal or gift a membership. In the notes of any option, be sure to leave a note stating ‘Gift for XX Months’. We’ll start and stop any membership for you.
