Our "Why"
Make Yoga Accessible
Yoga and related wellness practices are a profound and simple solution for wellbeing issues, but accessibility is a challenge in almost all but the most affluent areas. Our mission is to change that by spreading the benefits of yoga far and wide and making yoga more accessible for everyone in all communities.
Who We Are
We at Yoga Will Change My Life have all personally experienced significant positive changes in health, well-being, and personal growth after starting to practice yoga. When something has been this helpful to us, we can't help but want to share it with everyone. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to sharing the benefits of yoga with all communities.
What We Do
Increase Access to Yoga Teacher Training
Our biggest focus is to make yoga teacher training accessible for inspired future teachers that otherwise could not afford it. The more people who are capable of sharing yoga and related wellness practices in all communities, the better -- especially when they are empowered with their own cultural, individual, and embodied ways to get the best results. These new yoga teachers go on to share these practices within their own communities, which creates ripple effects of mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
​
In addition to our focus on subsidizing yoga teacher training we flex into other areas to make yoga and related wellness more accessible. Donations and grants may also be specified for the purpose of directly helping individuals afford these services, or for the purposes of helping build and sustain yoga studios within communities.
