We perform our operations and practices by donation. Reciprocity is the foundation for exchanging value, and we strongly believe that if our intentions can benefit others, we too will reap the benefits.
We work with our members and representatives to deliver mindful, strengthening, and holistic Yoga sessions. We ensure the experience of Yoga will be a complete system of healing and promoting physical, mental, and spiritual health, both on and off the mat.
