“When I caught the post in the Fader, I thought it was cool to see a fresh take on two things we enjoy separately, blended together. A nice example of some daily duality.” -P.Dove

Trap Yoga — a course intended to both challenge the limits of one’s physicality and speak to the culture’s inherent spirituality.

In 2013, 26-year-old, Brandon Copeland opened a Washington D.C.-based yoga studio, Khepera Wellness, after feeling like the essence of black culture was being excluded from majority-white yoga spaces in the area.

"When I mentioned that I was listening to trap music when I did classes or when I practiced at home, or even put on Instagram, people were interested. Enough people were interested that on my 25th birthday, I threw a Trap Yoga class at the Lululemon in Georgetown, which for me was a really big deal because it felt really right." -Brandon Copeland (The Fader)
