Lead with peace, ignite with power, and transform with yoga in this 2-hour workshop.
Yoga isn’t just a practice, it’s a path to leadership, liberation, and impact. Rooted in the wisdom of the Yoga Sutras, and the Vedas, and Ignite Your Yoga, this transformative 2-hour experience will explore yoga’s deeper roots and its power to inspire your courageous leadership, social change, and collective healing.
Led by renowned teacher and author Susanna Barkataki, this workshop explores the dynamic balance of peace (Shanti) and power (Shakti) through movement, breath, and ritual. Grounded in the ethical foundations of yoga - Ahimsa, Satya, Asteya, and beyond - it offers a deep dive into how these principles remain relevant in today’s world.
Through meditation, pranayama, and mindful movement, participants will gain practical tools to sustain both activism and teaching while engaging in a guided Shanti Shakti Ritual that weaves together mantra, mudra, asana, and breathwork to cultivate clarity, confidence, and impact.
The workshop also introduces the F.I.R.E. Framework from Ignite Your Yoga, a powerful model for embodied leadership that emphasizes self-care, integrity, community, and action. In a world that often forces a choice between passivity and burnout, this practice illuminates another path - one that honors the roots of yoga and embraces both stillness and action, peace and power.
This workshop will help you:
Break free from self-doubt and inaction and move into your voice and leadership.
Feel both grounded and energized - so you can sustain your work for the long haul.
Move beyond overwhelm into grounded action in true embodied, justice-centered leadership.
Connect with a community of changemakers, who believe in yoga’s power to heal and transform.
You’ll leave feeling rooted, activated, and empowered, with a toolkit of yoga and energy practices to sustain your leadership, activism, and personal growth.
