MISSION - WHAT WE DO
Our mission is to bring yoga to those incarcerated and under resourced communities.
VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS
Our goal is to establish such a daily yoga practice, to be incorporated with the other strategies being developed to help sexually trafficked children. Through yoga, they will be presented with tools for self-healing that they can carry with them throughout their lives, as well as a connection to a broader community. We are selling tickets to an event where funds would go towards mats and other needed equipment, as well as special training and stipends for teachers. The yoga program would be first operated within the confines of the juvenile justice system, but additional funds could be used to establish scholarships, allowing these girls to continue their yoga practice when they leave.
SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT
We teach yoga to help heal trauma with incarcerated youth, children with a history of foster care and / or commercial sexual exploitation (CSEC), and communities that need it most. We offer many free community yoga classes, see our class schedule under the tab CLASSES (teaching over 40 classes per month) and international trauma informed yoga trainings establishing community.
