Small World Yoga

We're gearing up for Back to School season with a special campaign to support our youth programming! 🚌🎒📓📚✏️

Almost half (45%) of the locations we serve are schools and youth centers. These include public schools, afterschool programs, and residential facilities.

There are 31 locations who have requested Small World Yoga to provide yoga programming for their kids this school year, and you can make sure each of them has classes. Your donations support paying our teachers, purchasing mindfulness tools, and even launching programs at new locations!

We're hoping to raise $3,500 by August 31. Ask your employer if they'll match your donation! Together, we can help improve the lives of our youngest Nashville neighbors.

Donate at our link or our website and share with your friends!!

Good reminders for experienced yogis too! 🫂

What other nuggets of wisdom do y'all have for folks starting their yoga journey, especially if group fitness classes or new unfamiliar things bring up anxiety?

If you're new to yoga or nervous about trying a public yoga class, we're biased buuuut you should come see us. We'd love to meet you and show you how unscary it really is. Honestly the hardest part is just showing up!!
