Karma Yoga

Balance yoga is not only a vibrant hatha or physical yoga studio that challenges you physically and mentally, but also a studio devoted to helping our students and the community at large- in other words, challenging your soul.

So far, since we opened in December of 2004, we (our students and teachers) have come together to:

  • Raise several thousands of dollars to help Kashi Yoga in its yogathon (2005 and 2006) as they continue to feed the homeless. We will be doing it again next year.

  • Raise several hundred dollars for Taskforce for the Homeless (along with Lululemon Athletica) at our yogathon in Piedmont park for the Solstice. We will be doing it again next year.

  • Raise several hundred dollars for Hurricane Katrina victims.

  • Collect blankets, clothes and other necessary items for the homeless EVER holiday season.

  • Enable adolescents in foster care to have a merry Christmass/happy holiday season through DFACs. (We collect donations and then go buy them gifts, wrap them and help distribute them. Last year we "adopted" three teenagers and we will do it again this year.)

  • Thank you to all those who participated and donated in Shannon's class on Sunday afternoon, October 7th- we raised several hundred dollars for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.

    We hope that you will join us in these acts of Karma Yoga as we take the yoga off the mat and into the "street"!"
