What is Queer Yoga? Can I come if I’m straight and skinny?
Sure! The class is open to everyone. I figure the title will be a little self-selecting though, as I will be talking about themes that are related to queerness/body positivity (which just might not be what some yogis are looking for in a yoga class). Come check it out and see if it’s for you. :)
As for the “what is queer yoga” question: we’ll see! It’s going to evolve over the course of the semester, for sure. Check out the class description on the website for my little blurb, and here are some links to places I’m drawing inspiration from:
