Yoga for Creativity with YOGAMOTIF at Allegheny Landing

Join Alecia Dawn of YOGAMOTIF for an inspired workshop centering creativity as a wellness practice. Pause, breathe, and look inward to experience gentle yoga, a reflective drawing prompt, and a guided meditation. Wear clothes that support free movement including seated, floor, and standing yoga postures with variations available throughout. Prepare for this all-levels experience by bringing a yoga mat, blanket or meditation pillow, and water.

Alecia Dawn is an arts worker and yoga guide who explores the creative process as an invitation to heal. She believes that creating art and creating life are connected and invests her time in people, projects, and communities that explore these practices. In 2018, she founded YOGAMOTIF, a creative wellness studio that offers art and yoga classes to youth, pregnant people, and the community at large. She makes space to center Black women in healing, and is honored to support the community with a joyful and breath-centered practice.
