REGISTRATION REQUIRED

What can our bodies teach us about the endurance, strength, groundedness, compassion and creativity required to practice justice? How can yoga be a practice of liberation?

All bodies are welcome — crying babies, youth, chosen families, mothers, fathers, elders, BIPOC folks and LGBTQ+ folks. Come late, leave early, or ignore all directions and do your own thing. Haus of Glitter classes are an invitation for you to love your body. Bring water and a yoga mat (and/or towel or blanket) to practice at the Temple to Music.

Instructors:

HAUS OF GLITTER Are the inaugural Artist in Residence for the Providence Arts + Culture + Tourism Department and Parks Department for the Historic Esek Hopkins Homestead & Park

MATTHEW ROLANDO GARZA (he + they) is a Queer Tejanx/Latinx performance artist, Contemporary Afro-Latin choreographer, healer & educator. Garza’s work explores the relationship between the individual human body and the collective body.
