Ahimsa.

(verb) : to not harm oneself or another physically, verbally, or mentally.

In commemoration of the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, The Collective STL leds an annual yoga practice at the Missouri History Museum during the weekend leading up to Dr. King Day.

Dr. King’s activism was rooted in the practice of ahimsa, or nonviolence. During this event, we explore this concept while guiding participants through a yoga class featuring a gospel music ensemble.
