Wholly Yoga

In 2010 Wholly Yoga will launch Grand Rapids Urban Youth Yoga an effort to introduce urban youth to the physical and mental benefits of yoga. Yoga has many documented benefits for people young and old. In the high stress urban environment yoga can provide a welcome release for youth and a physical activity that engages the mind as well as the body. Many of yoga’s early teachers taught yoga to youth so thy might experience these great benefits. Unfortunately in the U.S.  yoga is often inaccessible for urban youth because of the cost. So GRUYY will provide yoga classes on a donation basis for all youth participant. You can give nothing if they practice karma yoga by paying it forward and serving   community.

You can help by

• Donating your old gently used yoga mat
• Making a tax exempt donation through our nonprofit Grand Rapids Dreams
• Sharing the info and encouraging urban youth to participate in classes
