Yoga For A Cause [UPDATED]

Thrive Yoga, one of our advertisers, provides support to local charities through their Yoga For A Cause program. This month on Sunday, December 5, 2010, a Hatha Yoga class lead by Alicia Patterson will raise funds for The Dwelling Place to help them provide for the homeless during the holiday season. The timeframe for the donation class is 2–3:30 PM 2:30-4 PM which includes one-hour of yoga and time for socializing.

The class is open to all levels of practitioners and beginners are welcome. Alicia is a certified Hatha Yoga Instructor and began her yoga journey in the Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga. Alicia “teaches a fluid class and cues students to be curious and look inward.”

The Dwelling Place was founded in 1988 by a group of activists and volunteers concerned about the growing number of homeless families in our community. The organization provides transitional housing and supports families to get them back on their feet and achieve self-sufficiency.

You might notice no fee amount is set for this yoga class. Those attending are asked to make a donation and the entire amount will go to The Dwelling Place.

Thrive Yoga has been my studio for the last few years and I highly recommend the classes. As you can tell, they regularly reach out to help the community and are a true community partner.

Thrive Yoga is located at 1321 Rockville Pike in the Woodmont Shopping Center just south of the country club.
