Before yoga, there was language. 😊

I trained as an Applied Linguistic and received a Master's Degree in Applied Linguistics/TESOL from Northeastern Illinois University, Chicago, in 2006.

I have worked in the field of ESL, EAL and TESOL in Chicago, Chile and Abu Dhabi, UAE for a total of five years. I teach from a holistic lens which into account your whole being as a learner. I incorporate gentle accessible movement and breath work on your session so you can get the most out of our time together.

It is with great pleasure and glee that Dr. Bayo Akomolafe will be joining the Ashtanga Intersections: Emergent Healing Spaces series.

Take a moment to dive into animist, magical hemispheres with us.

Brother Bayo's work in Post-Activism, an animist response to trauma/carceral assemblages/the Yoruba trickster God called Exu/slowing down in urgent times has inspired me to look at my lineage-based Ashtanga yoga practice through a vastly different lens.

Join us as we journey in fugitivity together.

If you're interested in learning Ashtanga yoga in the comfort and convenience of your own home, this is the perfect opportunity to do just that.

Join me in my gentle, therapeutic approach to this dynamic practice. I teach the practice of Ashtanga Yoga through a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens, taking into consideration each individual's personal and cultural identities.

I specialise in Beginners so no prior experience of yoga is necessary.

Come as you are.
Leave transformed.

This is a session for you if you need to tap into your body's natural ability to heal itself, slow down and gently self-regulate the nervous system. The themes of this session are focused on:

REST
RESTORE
RETURN

We'll move through some restorative yoga poses which will lead us into some breath work and meditation. I'll also offer some journaling prompts which will serve as a way to link your yoga practice back into your life.
