Your Contribution for Youth

Everyday we are reminded of the benefits of our yoga practice. When we have the chance we enjoy sharing this experience with our circle of friends and family. However, there is one among our community who has devoted herself to equally share her gifts with the young men and women who have been detained or are incarcerated in the juvenile systems.

We have previously introduced the work of Krishna Kaur to the YogaHub community, and today we are happy to support her recent efforts for the youth of South Los Angeles. On March 2nd at the Los Angeles Marathon XXII, she will be walking on behalf of her organization Y.O.G.A. for Youth. The awareness and monies that she hopes to raise will allow her teachers and herself to continue to bring yoga classes to our troubled and conflicted youth.

It has been through her vision and commitment that these young people have been able to find solutions to their anger, depression and lack of self-esteem. The efforts they are putting forth to achieve a balance and inner piece is inspiring. Let us help them to continue this work by offering up our pledges and sponsorship for the Y.O.G.A. for Youth runners, walkers and our elder teacher Krishna Kaur.
