Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge the traditional, ancestral, territory of the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinabewaki, the Attiwondernok (Neutral) and the people of the Mississauga and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation on which we are learning and practicing on in Treaty 4 territory - The Haldimand Treaty of 1784. Treaty 4 is still not fully honoured and includes stolen land, and the rights of Indigenous people are still oppressed through the continued erasure of their culture, stories, people and land. As a settler, yoga teacher, and practitioner by honouring and acknowledging the ancestors of the land I occupy along with its history I commit to dismantling the systems of oppression that have denied and displaced Indigenous people and limited their freedom and lives.
