Yogis for World Peace! |  | |
Our local yoga communities are gathering together this Sunday, September 21, the United Nations International Day of Peace, when thousands of yoga teachers around the world will be hosting events to promote world peace and raise funds for their chosen charities in "The Global Mala."
You may have heard us talking up this special fundraiser, and know that we are going to be leading students, both new and experienced, in 108 Sun Salutations, a sequence of yoga poses linked together with steady breath and mindful movements.
What's so great about the number 108? Click Here Great question, and here is more information than you might ever be able to remember!
No worries...everyone and any body can do these sun salutes, and we will be offering many different ways to practice, from a gentle fashion to the more strong athletic style. There will be plenty of appropriate "jump off" places where you can take rest, and simply watch and enjoy the event from your mat. You can share the sun salutes with someone else...share a mat, take turns! Another way to enjoy the Mala is to arrive later and jump in at any time, complete what you can, and stay for the dancing and the goodies, and enjoy our yoga community!
You will be helping to support 3 local organizations and 1 international organization, all proceeds will be donated directly, and your energy, enthusiasm, participation, and any and all donations will be deeply appreciated. Please join us!
