Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year, everyone!
Jocelyne, Lili, and I wish you all the best for the coming year!
I would like to extend a very huge thank you to all who helped LIFE Camp reach our $25,000 fundraising goal by generously donating close to $7,000 of it in just three days. This money goes directly back into a NY community that has been using tools of mental wellness and violence interruption to prevent gun violence in Queens. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support of LIFE Camp and
the Urban Yogis. Your donations have been made in the name of fourteen year old Aamir Griffin, who was killed in October by a stray bullet in the basketball court of the Baisley Housing Development, where almost all of the Urban Yogi teachers live. The entire staff of LIFE Camp and the community at Baisley appreciates and is grateful for your support.
Please find below our schedule for the coming months in NYC, followed by our workshop schedule through June. In July we will hold our first ever three week intensive in NYC, which will include Mysore practice and pranayama classes in the morning, followed by evening lectures and yoga therapy classes. Information can be found on our
website, and a detailed schedule will be posted in January. This is a non-residential intensive.
