About your Teacher:
Cassandre Titus is a certified Yoga Instructor and a Licensed Practical Nurse that has been caring for patients for more than 10 years.
Her studies of the human body and her curiosity about the mind - body - soul connection intrigued her into diving deeper into the practice of yoga. She completed her 200hr yoga teacher training in 2016 and her 300hr yoga teacher training in 2023.
Her studies include vinyasa, restorative yoga, and yin yoga. Cassandre uses her qualities of compassion and strength within her classes to guide students to self-connection through intentional movement and breath.
The BIPOC Yoga Collective is an accessible, all-levels practice for those who identify as BIPOC. This monthly workshop style class intends to create a safe and familiar space to expose new and seasoned yogis to Boston’s BIPOC instructors, local community of practitioners, and a diversifying studio space. Classes will rotate between different instructors who will take care to ensure students at all levels are able to follow along and create a container that may leave them feeling stronger, empowered, or rested depending on the workshop design.
Purpose:
To create a shared space where Black, Indigenous, and People of Color may be in community with others who share a deep understanding of their marginalization, because of their unspoken shared experience. The intent is to create a sense of safety in one’s authenticity without the gaze of well-meaning and curious onlookers or “saviors”.
We hope to create an automatic increase of baseline trust simply by holding space for this experience, but continuing to build upon it by leveraging ongoing feedback and representation from the varied perspectives, racial groups and levels of privilege within the broader BIPOC identity group.
Our goal is to have attendees engage in the practice of yoga without the reminders of negatively racialized lived experiences within their racial identities, and create solidarity among us.
