Never felt like you belonged in a yoga studio?
Community Yoga New London was created for Black and Brown community members, people in bigger bodies, beginners, and anyone who has ever felt like yoga spaces were not created with them in mind. All humans are welcome and celebrated here. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Our Indoor Community Flow classes can be practiced standing & seated on a mat or fully from a chair, allowing you to choose what feels most supportive.
Our Outdoor Yoga in the Park and pop-up classes are taught with multiple mat-based options so participants can choose what works best for their experience level, mobility, and comfort.
No experience needed. No flexibility required (seriously). Come exactly as you are.
Together, we'll move gently, breathe, and create space to reconnect with our bodies in community.
MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi, I'm Brenda De Los Santos.
I'm a proud Latina (my family is from Puerto Rico) and was born and raised here in New London. I have practiced yoga for about 15 years. Throughout those years, I often found myself as one of the only people who looked like me in the room. While I experienced the benefits of yoga firsthand, I also understood what it felt like to wonder if I truly belonged.
After I completed my yoga teacher training in early 2026, Community Yoga New London grew from a simple belief: everyone deserves to feel welcome in a yoga class.
My classes are accessible, supportive, and judgment-free, with options for beginners, people in bigger bodies, and anyone looking for a more inclusive approach to yoga. Whether you're stepping onto a mat for the first time or returning after years away, you're welcome here.
I can't wait to practice with you.
