About me
Ericka Jones is a Minneapolis-based 500-hour RYT, meditation teacher, and a prominent leader in the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) space. As the founder of Yoga Coalition, Ericka is dedicated to creating yoga environments where every individual feels a true sense of belonging.
Her work bridges the gap between ancient ethical principles—like ahimsa (non-harming) and satya (truthfulness)—and modern social action.
A Lululemon Ambassador and educator at Up Yoga, Ericka’s teaching style is grounded in joy, connection, and optimism. She empowers her students to use the tools of yoga—rest, vitality, and healing—to navigate their own lives with bravery and integrity. Whether leading a flow or a community conversation, Ericka’s mission is to ensure that the transformative power of yoga is accessible and equitable for all.
