Bend Don’t Break
Annual Campaign to Support the Veteran & First Responder community
Yoga and mediation can provide the Warrior “within” us with the valuable tools that foster the equanimity and inner resilience we need to bring back a sense of peace and ease in our lives.
As we near Veterans Day on 11.11.23 our Inaugural Bend Don’t Break Campaign will raise the necessary funds to support our mission of delivering free trauma-informed yoga to the military & first responder community here in Massachusetts.
This fall we will be calling on the yoga studio community to band together in support of those who serve. Then on Veteran’s Day we will host a special event open to the public.
