International Campaign: Anahata International

By cdia, 18 March 2010

2010 FellowshipRwanda Project | Seed Grants Get Involved

Anahata International is dedicated to bringing yoga to post-conflict communities to promote healing and social change.

How do we do this?

  • We pursue this goal by training new teachers in their home countries and facilitating their development of self-sustaining programs. Our organization provides self-care and wellness programs to compliment health education and vocational training provided by other organizations.
  • We focus on offering trauma sensitive yoga as a tool for individuals to reconnect to their communities and their inner strength and equanimity. By training local instructors we aim to empower young leaders and connect them to the cross-cultural exchange of an expanding global yoga community.

Anahata International’s History:

In September 2007 when Angela Cerkevich worked with Never Again Rwanda to organize a yoga teacher training in Kigali.  For more information about the work in Rwanda, click here.

While the work in Rwanda continues to have a ripple effect of healing, we are moving forward with the 2010 Fellowship program to reach out to new post-conflict countries.  We are currently accepting applications and encourage you to apply if you are a Registered Yoga Teacher with connections abroad.
