…it’s time to rise
irise yoga + wellness creates safe spaces that center BIPOC and other marginalized communities in supporting their wellness journey. By combining the intersections between social and transformative justice irise yoga + wellness reframes our understanding of what wellness is and who wellness is for. Through our yoga classes, wellness experiences, and community conversations we empower BIPOC and other marginalized communities to prioritize not only their self-care, but to also reclaim Indigenous healing practices and cultivate space for individual and collective wellbeing. We believe that achieving true wellness is about finding balance and creating inclusive spaces for everyone. Our mission is to cultivate a community of like-minded people who connect the importance of their self-care and wellbeing to all aspects of their lives so that they can live a more balanced life and thrive.
