The Ubuntu Yoga Project

Wellness, Friendship and Self-Care

The Ubuntu Girls have continued to enjoy opportunities that support their wellbeing, confidence, and personal growth. Recently, the girls had the wonderful opportunity to attend yoga lessons at Koru Camp, where they were introduced to simple yoga movements, stretching, breathing, and relaxation techniques.

The yoga session gave the girls a chance to slow down, focus on themselves, and learn healthy ways to manage stress and emotions. Being outdoors in a peaceful environment also made the experience special and gave the girls an opportunity to enjoy something new together.

The girls also had a special self-care and bonding day at Nourish Village. They enjoyed having their nails done, followed by a relaxed pillow talk session where they could openly share their thoughts, experiences, and feelings with one another. These conversations help create trust and encourage the girls to support and listen to each other.

The day ended with movie time, giving the girls a chance to relax, laugh, and simply enjoy spending time together.

These activities are an important part of the Ubuntu Girls programme. Alongside education and life-skills activities, we believe it is important to give girls opportunities to build friendships, care for their wellbeing, express themselves, and grow in confidence.

We are grateful to everyone who supports the Ubuntu Girls programme. Your support helps us create meaningful experiences where girls can learn, connect, feel supported, and discover their own strength and potential.
