An International Yoga Conference invites you to stand against the blockade in peace! Our ¡Yoga Va! Latino group has practiced yoga in many different places on this beautiful island: in parks, on roadsides and beaches, and in museums and clinics. Now we invite you to stand in tree pose with our Cuban yoga friends and with other international yogis, as yogis in solidarity with Cubans against the inhumane embargo that effects every aspect of their lives–and ever more so with the current directions of the Trump administration.

Each day we will explore how yoga can bring us together and bring health, vitality and peace to our globe, using the elements as our gurus and Cuban and international teachers as our guides. There will be conferences on issues of yoga and diversity, solidarity, climate and ecology, the arts, health and well-being, and Ayurveda, along with a full cultural program in the afternoons for US visitors. The emphasis will be on yoga, celebration, and practicing asana in iconic parts of Habana, with our practice being an important solidarity event for all. This journey will fill up quickly!
