Welcome

YOGA IS FOR EVERYONE! Thank you for joining us at our Renovad YOGA 11 Days Towards Freedom course. During this session, you will be instructed on Yoga philosophy for 3 minutes a day for the duration of 10 days, and on the 11th day, we will have a LIVE VIRTUAL community Yoga class from Morocco. This enlightening course is intended to reignite or introduce you to the practice of Yoga. If you have discounted yourself from this beneficial practice because you deemed yourself not to have the right ability, mobility, age, or shape - this program is for you! We hope that you will enjoy this course, based on a practical scientific method focusing on involution - a return to the ultimate consciousness, to the inner self and true identity – to ultimately achieve complete liberation. While this is a free program, we encourage you to make a donation in the amount you see fit to our non-profit Renovad GIVE Foundation, which provides capacity-building advisory, funding, and visibility to nonprofit organizations around the world focused on leadership development, entrepreneurship, and education to forge a more compassionate, productive and equitable America, and world.

Your Teachers

Pilar Avila

Doing well and doing good is the path to living abundantly free - this is my ethos and my North Star. I hold an RYS 200 Yoga Teacher Certification from the Blue Osa Yoga Retreat Institute, accredited by Yoga Alliance. My mission as a yoga teacher is to introduce yoga to souls who may have not had access to it, may have discounted themselves because they deemed themselves not to have the right mobility, ability, shape or age, or just simply missed to realize the holistic benefits of yoga for mind, body and soul. I have had an immensely rewarding life and career as a business leader, civic activist and change agent, while living my passion to fuel the rise of diverse leadership, promoting access to economic opportunity, and investing in education. But no matter what I have done or accomplished, as a human being, I always have new goals and dreams - and Renovad is the expression of that endless desire to live a meaningful and purposeful life, doing well and doing good.

Guest Teacher

Brittany Smith-Cochran

I am a 500-hour registered yoga teacher (E-RYT 500) also holding certificates for yoga therapy, yoga for Veterans, yoga for PTSD, and yoga for eating disorders. I am also a certified Personal trainer, and Reiki practitioner. I found myself in child’s pose after a serious injury that severely limited my mobility. The space yoga created for me to heal my physical body, my thought patterns, and connection with myself is something I remember every time I teach and practice yoga. I cherish the wisdom a yoga practice offers, and it is an honor for me to facilitate my yoga students through their personal processes.
