Black-led Community Spotlight: Felicia Savage Friedman of YogaRoots On Location

CP Photo: Jared Murphy Felicia Savage Friedman teaches a chair yoga class at The Kingsley Association in July 2019. For many, the word “yoga” conjures images of watercolor sunsets and people sitting with their legs crossed, hands extended with palms up toward the sky. Yoga itself started as an ancient Indian cultural and religious practice, and as it became popular in the Western world, teachers began to alter and add on to traditional principles. For Felicia Savage Friedman of YogaRoots On Location, the practice still holds some of its spiritual roots, but she also adds social justice elements to it. For Friedman, yoga is an embodied practice that has roots in the self and in the greater community a person resides in. This is why she has combined the traditions of Raja yoga with anti-racism and anti-oppression frameworks.
