Off the back

Off the back OFF the Back main goal is to defend rights for those who cannot speak up for themselves and defend own rights, and hence, suffer injustice.

Let´s practice Yoga and Barathanatyam for better future! Off the Back -Yoga For Justice was born inspired by the initiative Yogis for Women Rights from Vienna led by Theresa Gigov. Me, Anna Punda Parvati and Luana M. Bellisari joined the initiative with our own project supporting the APDHA NGO and their campaign "Women goods carries. Heavy burden of injustice". With Yoga and Barathanatyam Fundamentals we wanted to raise awareness and contribute to the better work condition of these Moroccan women ho carry goods across the border of Ceuta and Melilla. Most recently we supported the NGO NoMoreWalking campaign raising funds for unaccompanied minors in Greece to help them have better future. Let´s practice Yoga for better future!

We need to take back the our project Anna Punda Parvati !

Murió Fatima, 48 años, porteadora marroquí en la frontera con Ceuta. Maldita pobreza, malditas fronteras¡. Rabia y dolor inmensas. Que su muerte no sea en vano. Redoblemos la denuncia, redoblemos la protesta. Y todo el cariño y solidaridad con todas esas mujeres y sus familias. Murió una de las nuestras.

In rural areas, near the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Mellila, women are shamefully exploited, jointly by both Morocco and Spain, as means of transportation of contraband goods, and are referred to as mule women. This misnomer is doubly insulting because it considers women as stupid animals, good only for transportation, and, also, as second class citizens devoid of any human feelings. Sadly, this inhuman treatment of Moroccan women is the direct responsibility of Morocco, Spain and, also, indirectly, the EU.

With Off the back, Yoga4Justice and women´s right we support the Apdha Organization whose major objective is to regulate condition of these women. Last Saturday 25th of March we hosted at YALP Yoga Studio second workshop o the donation basis to support the cause.
