about us
Pana is community dedicated to uplifting the wellbeing of the African Diaspora and allies.
Through movement, education, and the celebration of Black culture, we create spaces that nurture healing, empowerment, and connection.
Our why
Our mission is simple yet profound: to provide supportive spaces for Black, Brown, and People of Colour (BPOC) to prioritise their wellbeing and reconnect with themselves, their heritage, and the world around them.
By weaving together the transformative power of yoga and movement, the beauty of nature, and the joy of community, we are building bridges to personal and collective healing, one practice at a time.
What We Offer
A Safe Space for Healing and Growth
Our BPOC Yoga Club is a sanctuary for those seeking to elevate their wellbeing in an inclusive and welcoming environment. Here, Black, Brown, and People of Colour can connect, heal, and thrive - free from judgment and full of support.
Cultural Immersion and Education
Through retreats to Africa and the Caribbean, we offer more than just travel experiences. We provide a journey into the heart of Black culture and history, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of our rich heritage.
Accessible Wellbeing for All
We are committed to making tools for wellbeing more affordable and accessible to the Black community. From yoga classes to workshops and retreats, we strive to ensure that cost is never a barrier to self-care.
The Power of Nature and Travel
Whether practising yoga by the ocean, meditating in the forest, or exploring cultural landmarks, we embrace the natural world and meaningful travel as pathways to self-discovery and reconnection.
Why we exist
The wellbeing of Black and Brown communities has often been overlooked in broader wellness spaces. At Pana, we’re changing that narrative. We recognise the unique challenges faced by the African Diaspora and its allies and are here to champion their physical, mental, and emotional health.
We believe that through connection - to ourselves, to our culture, and to one another - we can reclaim the joy and resilience that define our communities.
