Zen for Men

Zen for Men is a workshop designed to support men in diverse communities in their journey toward better health and well-being through yoga practice. This workshop is especially geared towards Black men, who are disproportionately affected by chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, as well as by higher rates of serious psychological distress and unacknowledged race-based trauma.

Research has shown that yoga can be an effective tool for reducing stress, improving mental health, and addressing the root causes of illness. By participating in Zen for Men, you'll learn how to incorporate yoga into your daily life in a way that is accessible and meaningful, and you'll be part of a supportive community of men who are also committed to improving their physical and mental well-being through yoga practice."

The workshop will be led by Dimitrius Glenn, Yoga Program Director at Ensō Apothecary.  The session will include:

-A history lesson on the African origins of yoga

-Male pioneers of yoga

-Beginner yoga flow

We are excited to collaborate with Dream Performance and The Dock Book Shop, two Black-owned businesses that are committed to uplifting and enriching their community. We are elated to come together for such an important cause and can't wait to see you there.


This is a family event, ALL are welcome. All levels. Beginners are welcome.
