WellnessCast™ Conversation with Rocsana Enriquez of the Art of Yoga Project
Friday, 17 August, 2018
The Art of Yoga Project is a non-profit organization that serves over 700 at-risk, incarcerated and exploited girls every year, serving over 6000 girls since its inception over a decade ago. Its core work is in detention facilities in San Mateo, San Francisco and Santa Clara counties. The Project goes directly into these facilities bringing a mindfulness-based curriculum combining yoga, meditation, creative arts and writing. Its mission is to empower young girls while teaching accountability and well-being. Its team includes specially trained, trauma-informed yoga teachers and art and writing educators. To keep girls connected after release, the Project has partnerships with middle schools and high schools that are primarily gang-impacted in their home counties. The Project also has programs for girls in substance abuse treatment facilities, level 14 facilities, and organizations working with sex-trafficked girls. Please enjoy this conversation with Rocsana Enriquez, a former student and current teacher with the Project.
