Investigating War Crimes in Gaza
Documentary from Al Jazeera
Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit exposes Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip
through the medium of photos and videos posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves.
The film also tells the story of the conflict through the eyes of Palestinian journalists, human rights
workers and ordinary residents of the Gaza Strip. And it exposes the complicity of Western governments
We will be holding space after these films as the topic couldn't be more heavy.
We are choosing to watch these films in community so we can talk and
support one another while we witness the atrocities.
Ashtanga for Palestine raised $525 for the NPO Heal Palestine!
Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed.
Stay tuned for the next Presence for Palestine Class at Samastah and Asthanga for Palestine
with Maysaa Chamoutt
All proceeds go to HEAL Palestine.
A non-profit dedicated to helping Palestinian children rebuild through a grassroots, holistic approach.

"Samastah has helped me to look
inward and really see myself with grace and
compassion. It is where I have received support, encouragement, and guidance to continue to
look at myself, and my life, while finding ways to love and accept myself – all of me – just as I am. "
Dana Sladowski
"I would give this studio 10 stars if I had the option, Maura & Joseph are absolutely wonderful to practice with & learn from! I started the yogic development & embodiment course about 3 months ago & have also been taking the yin & hatha classes, all of which have far exceeded my expectations! The amount of healing & growth I've had since I started here is amazing & I absolutely recommend practicing here."
Cassie Leger
"This space is a total gem. If your heart is seeking beauty and belonging, give Samastah a try. Maura and Joseph are gifted teachers who craft their classes to meet the needs of the students who are present. Strongly recommend for postpartum healing. Oh and they sing to you too! Maura has a voice like a bell."

"One of the very best yoga studios I have ever been to. Every time I have practiced here, it has been a great workout, and a true mind exercise. Joseph has the gift! Really a wonderful leader.
The studio is less of a modern work out yoga gym, and more of a traditional eastern/spiritual yoga center"
