The Science of Yoga - 06/21/2025
Why Yoga Day Conferences?
Because we think that it is important to bring the rigor of Science to the practice of Yoga.
Who are we?
We are a group of academics and practitioners focusing on social anthropologies of the body in the practice of Yoga.
How can you help?
We need to fundraise enough to be able to publish our work, and to have an event on Yoga Day (21th June, 2025).
