Since 2012, Soulflow has been a powerful force for uniting our community in healing, liberation and joy. We center Queer, BIPOC, and underserved communities in downtown Oakland through our transformative classes, retreats and workshops.


Here’s a snapshot of what we accomplished in 2025:

  • Free yoga & dance classes: 26
  • Classes and healing services offered by donatio n: 171
  • Free memberships: 12
  • Discounted memberships: 105
  • Full scholarships for retreat: 12
  • Partial scholarships for retreat: 18

With your generosity, in 2026 we aim to:

  • Provide free and discounted childcare for Yoga classes and retreats
  • Offer free and discounted Teen & Family Yoga
  • Offer donation-based Yoga en Español
  • Provide 250 free and by-donation classes and healing services
  • Offer free memberships for anyone who qualifies based on income
  • Award 50 partial and full retreat scholarships

Here’s what we focus on:


Community-Centered Healing & Liberation: We’re part of a global movement that honors authentic lineages while centering practices for BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and disabled communities. SoulFlow co-creates an environment where everyone can feel seen, included, and uplifted.


Accessible Wellness: To make yoga, meditation, and dance accessible, we offer scholarships and sliding scale pricing, ensuring financial barriers don’t prevent anyone from participating.


Workshops & Retreats for Holistic Wellbeing: Through our retreats and workshops, we embrace the whole self, creating experiences that foster community building, ancestral wisdom, joy, and more, all with a commitment to restorative justice and radical inclusion.


Our mission is to inspire courageous, compassionate action in the world.As we challenge authoritarianism, late-stage capitalism & white supremacy, our communities will need more safe spaces to gather, heal, and spark joy. In a world of corporate fitness and hoarded resources, we long for radical community healing spaces, like SoulFlow, to thrive for years to come. We hope to raise $44,000 by June 2026 to ensure we can maintain operations through the end of the year. This will enable us to maintain our offerings, increase teacher pay, and ensure that everyone, regardless of their situation can access the healing that they deserve. We ask you to give from the heart to empower us co-create an inclusive and liberatory space.


💖✨Thank you for your generosity and support. Donations are tax-deductible
