Dharma in Motion:  Malaya Flow with Jessy Kondo Zapanta

Malaya means freedom in Tagalog. Malaya Flow allows you freedom of movement, to inhabit your body, to reconnect to spirit. Weaving indigenous Filipino community wisdom with years of physical therapy, somatic practice, and training in trauma-informed Raja yoga, qi gong, and 5-element acupressure, Jessy will guide you through dynamic movements and stationary meditation based on your own body’s accessibility needs. You will build strength, spaciousness, and self-compassion. All movements can be done sitting, lying down, or standing up.

With extensive education in bodywork/somatic/energy practices and deep intuition informed by their life experience as a Bay Area-born mixed person of color navigating trauma and chronic illnesses, Jessy Kondo Zapanta brings compassion, curiosity and mind-body wisdom to class. Jessy is no stranger to injuries and accessibility needs, and hopes to create a nurturing space where all bodies feel welcomed.
