Our goal is to offer our students a welcoming fully equipped yoga studio conducive to practice.
Currently we are in need of repairing and replacing bolsters, blankets, and belts. We have been given permission to have a sandwich board outside to help first time students find us. For all these reasons and our continuing ability to thrive, we are seeking donations and you may donate here:
At the Open House, we will be offering props in exchange for a donation to help you develop your home practice.
