Testimonials
Biola led several yoga sessions at our Community Accountable Civic Engagement Cohort gathering. Her class was accessible, grounded, and left participants feeling ready for the day. In organizing convening spaces that are often full of ideas and difficult conversations it was great to have a leader who could simultaneously hold space and be present with people while providing concrete space for people to practice their breathing and engage in some physical activity together. I would highly recommend Biola for your convening.

Biola was an absolutely amazing addition to our 10 year convening. She was prompt and on time, considerate of the safety/accessibility of all of our attendees and ensured that everyone could participate in the session no matter their level of ability or comfort. I left with tools that I will be using to ground myself. I also got to see how Biola cared for and held the people in the room. She didn't feel distant and rather was checking in with our attendees and tailoring her sessions to how folks were feeling that day. It was such a privilege to have someone in the room and holding sessions that shares our vision for liberation and a commitment to similar principles. It also is such a treat to have someone who knows what organizing is and how it takes from us to help restore, ground and shift our shared culture towards one of healing. Having Biola at our convening doing our morning yogas was pivotal for the convening.

“I attended Biola’s Vinyasa Yin Yoga class and absolutely loved it! As a yoga lover for the past eight years, I’ve been to many classes, and I can say this has been one of my favorites. Biola was attentive and patient. Plus, she had fragrant incense, which set the perfect tone for the class. I got the healing and deep stretch that I needed. I would 100% take this class again.”

“Biola's class was serene, reflective but deeply somatic as well. The perfect combination of intentionality, tenderness and body conditioning. I most enjoyed the guided deep breathing exercise in the beginning that transitioned into a slow warm-up. I left feeling very connected with my body and my mind was at ease. 10/10 will highly recommend! #NaijaNohDaeCarryLast💛”
