Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper highlights the intercultural approach of a yoga teacher training program for Indigenous people in Treaty 6 territory in the prairie region of central Canada. Using a grounded theory methodology, we analyzed qualitative data to foreground Indigenous experiences and understandings of yoga. In yoga, as in the Indigenous Medicine Wheel, wellbeing is understood as multi-dimensional, integrative, and holistic. Drawing on Indigenous values of ceremony, relationship building, and the environment, trainees gain fluency in Indigenous ways of knowing and being. While yoga practice at a commercial studio may be exclusionary and perpetuate colonial appropriation of South Asian religion, the practice of yoga by Indigenous people is understood as an act of decolonization. In this way, the practice of yoga can be a culturally appropriate support for the development of Indigenous spirituality, and it may be understood as an act of Reconciliation.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
