Description

We are so excited to have Eternity Philops (Soul Liberation Wellness & Kamili Yoga®) lead a FREE Wellness & Movement Workshop at this year's African American Heritage Festival!

Learn about Kamili Yoga's mission to facilitate spaces for Black holistic wellness and explore the ways in which movement can heal our spirits and connect us with our ancestors.

This workshop includes a presentation by Eternity Philops and a light movement practice featuring the tenets of Kamili Yoga®. 

About Kamili Yoga®

"From the African Swahili word for “complete” and the Indian Sanskrit word for “union,” Kamili Yoga® is born of the need for more systems of Yoga that center Black wellness and celebrate the cultures and histories of the African continent and diaspora. Kamili Yoga® consists of three structured core tenets, each of which is rooted in the exploration of Pan-African traditions and peoples, from the African ancestors spread across the Motherland to the Black descendants dispersed around the world."

The Charlotte Museum of History saves and shares the Charlotte region’s history, connecting the past to current issues and opportunities. We believe a shared understanding of the past can enrich the community’s future, and we work to tell the stories of all parts of our community and all those who have inhabited our area.

 

The museum sits on an eight-acre wooded campus in fast-changing East Charlotte. It’s the site of the oldest surviving house in Mecklenburg County, the Rock House built circa 1774 for the Hezekiah Alexander household. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and a designated local landmark, the house is Charlotte’s only remaining structure from the days of the Revolutionary period. Nearby are a relocated barn dating to the era, a reproduction log kitchen, and a reconstructed two-story springhouse. Tours of the site and museum programs highlight how people lived during that era and tell of the many cultures that came together to build Charlotte, including the stories of Black, Indigenous, and immigrant communities.
