Yoga 4 Change celebrates the organization’s 7th year since inception on March, 1, 2021. The day will commemorate seven years of serving those who have experienced trauma with a virtual event and collaborative partnerships with local bakeries across the state of Florida. The virtual event will begin at 5:30pm with a look back at the past seven years of service. At 6:00pm, Yoga 4 Change’s Founder and Executive Director, Kathryn Thomas, will teach one of her last classes for the organization as she prepares to leave in April. Tickets can be purchased for the event only, or individuals may support local bakeries with the option of pre-ordering cupcakes (i.e., packs of three or six) to be picked up at distinguished bakeries the Sunday before the event. During the event, raffle tickets will also be sold.
Yoga 4 Change was founded in 2014 in Jacksonville, FL and has since expanded to serve four regions across the state: North Florida, South Florida, Tampa Bay, and Central Florida. Community support and partnerships have played a huge role in the organization’s success, and Yoga 4 Change is thrilled to practice yoga with the community, as well as sweeten the event with local cupcakes. Yoga 4 Change will partner with Southern Roots Filling Station in Jacksonville, Florida and Zalia Cakes in Hollywood, Florida.
“I am in awe of what Yoga 4 Change has accomplished within the last seven years. Although I am leaving, I am feeling excited to watch Yoga 4 Change continue to flourish and create huge impact in Florida,” says Founder, Kathryn Thomas. “It’s bittersweet to have this event virtually as opposed to in-person, but given this past year, I am lucky to lead this class and look forward to seeing so many faces from across the world who have played instrumental roles in my life and who have directly impacted the growth and expansion of Y4C.”
