Join our citywide gathering of yoga, meditation, gong sound healing , a silent auction and a special guest to help support Yoga Gives Back.
You are invited to attend KC's first annual KC Yoga Gala to support Yoga Gives Back, a nonprofit organization that empowers the underserved women and children in India. Your participation and/or donation is important! We hope you join us for a very special morning of yoga, meditation, gong sound healing, silent auction (includes a retreat to Thailand!) and a very special guest presentation! We have all been blessed with yoga as a practice to live more fully. For the cost of one class or more, you can change a life.
