At Sankofa Yoga, we are committed to teaching the 3 P’s of Yoga—Postures, Pranayama, and Philosophy—to help students build a strong and meaningful foundation in their practice.
​
Yoga Basics consists of four essential classes, designed for anyone with little to no yoga experience. You’ll learn to move safely at your own pace as we guide you through the fundamentals of yoga, including:
​

Postures (Asana) – Learn key poses individually and build upon them with proper alignment
-
Pranayama – Discover breathwork techniques to support focus and relaxation
-
Philosophy – Explore yoga’s ethical principles and deeper meaning
​
Each class is taught in a clinic-style setting, allowing you to break down poses, refine your practice, and develop confidence in movement. You can take the classes in any order based on availability. After each class, you’ll receive a Sankofa coin to mark your progress. Complete all four classes and receive a special gift!

At Sankofa Yoga, we believe yoga is for everyBODY—no matter where you start. Move with intention, build strength, and deepen your connection with Yoga Basics! Class is led by Drs. Lola Salaam, M.D., Tamisha J. Ponder, Ph.D.
