Yoga with Amina

Yoga is not self improvement. Yoga is self discovery.
Yoga is playful, fun, and rejuvenating. If you aren’t finding enjoyment in your practice, try shifting your approach. If something doesn’t feel right or resonate with you, give yourself unconditional permission change things up. This practice is dynamic; each moment is entirely new. No judgement, no expectations, no finish line. Just be. You are already there.

Psst! I’ll be subbing Annie’s Saturday morning 9am power class up until mid-march while she is on maternity leave!


Come get to know yourself. You are the universe. 🌀

I’m excited to announce that this afternoon I will teach my first class with !
I’ll be teaching a “Power then Chill” class every Friday at 6pm.
Expect the first half to be a more vigorous asana practice, and the second half to be deeper relaxation and restorative shapes.
I hope to see some of y’all yinzers there soon!

🚨BIG ANNOUNCEMENT🚨
(I keep attempting to record myself to get a nice picture, but every time my camera goes out of focus. Oh well. Yoga encapsulates way more than the s**t we post on instagram anyway.)

In two weeks, I will be moving to Pittsburgh, PA to complete my Masters of Public Health in Behavioral and Community Health Sciences at I will miss the yoga community here in Nola so much, but I’m excited for this new chapter and to learn more about public health!

In the meantime, catch my classes over the next two weeks! Swipe to see my teaching schedule for the rest of my time in NOLA.

Here’s some topics I’m interested in studying and doing research, in case anyone was curious!!!

• How to eliminate stigma and barriers to health care, specifically in mental health
• The impact of climate change on community health and health behaviors
• How diet culture and weight stigma impact health care, and how to reduce the impact of these and promote healthier, kinder, and more sustainable relationships with our bodies, food, and exercise.
• How to incorporate mindfulness practices as a tool for people in the process of recovery from both disordered eating and substance abuse

Happy Mardi Gras my friends!
I will be doing the parade route bartending thing the week. 😅
I will be back in yoga teaching action next Wednesday for all your post Mardi Gras recovery needs! In the meantime, stay hydrated! Mardi Gras is a marathon, not a sprint, as they say.
