Community Giving
At 8 Limbs our Community Giving takes several routes. Starting in 2016 8 Limbs will choose one local non-profit that has a connection to yoga and/or mindfulness and support that organization through the following efforts:
- Raise awareness in our 8 Limbs community of non-profit.
- Donation of percentage of profits for the month of May.
- Thanksgiving Day Benefit Classes at all four 8 Limbs neighborhood studios.
- Support of non-profit staff with discounts on 8 Limbs classes.
This year 8 Limbs has chosen local non-profit Solid Ground as our Community Giving partner. We applaud Solid Ground’s mission to end poverty through community.
