Spread the Y.O.G.A. this Month!

At Y.O.G.A. for Youth they believe "Yoga + Urban Youth = Success!"

If you go to their website, you'll see this:

Y = Your
O = Own
G = Greatness
A = Affirmed

Yoga in Sanskrit means "to unite," and that's just what this clever acronym suggests.

When you are aware of your own greatness, you can become aware of the greatness of the Universe that you are part of. You become aware of the infinite reality in which you dwell and breathe. You become grateful for it.

Many children feel a sense of disconnection from the whole, which can cause a slue of development problems. At Y.O.G.A. for Youth, they bring yoga to the most under-served communities - incarcerated youth, and youth at risk.

See for yourself in this video:
