The Milwaukee yoga class for Black men, by Black men

When Lorenzo Edwards first began practicing yoga, he used it as it was a way to escape the stress of his job. A regular practice turned into attending classes. Attending classes turned into becoming a certified instructor. Then he noticed who was typically in the classes.And, more importantly, who wasn’t.“Prior to making a concerted effort to have practice with Black men, I seldom saw them — or us — in that space,” Edwards said. “If you can see yourself in the instructor, see yourself in the class, hear things that bring relief or the vibrations you need through music from your culture, it can help.”On this episode, guest host Rachel Tarby joins He Do Yoga, the weekly class Edwards created for Black men of all ages to experience yoga at no cost, with a focus on connection and healing.#####Guest host: Rachel TarbyUniquely Milwaukee is made possible by the generous support of our members.
