PAST COMMUNITY EVENTS
WOMEN’S ECONOMIC VENTURES
In honor of International Women’s Month in March 2025 we took our practice off the mat and gave back to WEV. WEV invests in women based businesses, building stronger families and resilient communities. In today’s economic and political climate, women are faced with so much disparity, it is clear that each of us must take action and support women to help build the future we want for the world.
WILDERNESS YOUTH PROJECT
Big shout out to everyone who attended the Sacred Garden Retreat Feb. 2025, together we nurtured our divine nature and raised money for Wilderness Youth Project!
SIERRA CLUB
Thank you to everyone who came out for the meditation walk in nature to benefit the Sierra Club Jan. 2025. Together we raised awareness of the need for spending time in nature and joining in conservation efforts in our local community.
