News just in: a vinyasa flow yoga class is being held at London studio Yogahome on January 31, to raise funds for those affected by the the Haiti Earthquake.
All proceeds will go to Aid organisation Medicins Sans Frontieres. The date of the event also coincides with World Yoga Day, when many studios around the world are running a 24-hour yoga marathon to raise funds for the stricken country.
The fundraising yoga class will be held at Yogahome, 11 Allen Road, Stoke Newington, from 2-5pm on January 31; minimum suggested donation is £8.
Teacher Alessandra Pecorella, who will be leading the class, says: 'Join in for a lead Vinyasa class aiming at opening our heart centre. The class will close with sitting and chanting in a circle, to direct our energy to the poor people affected by the earthquake in Haiti. Take yoga from your mat into the world!'
Practising yoga asanas on a mat is one thing; taking the wider principles of yoga - such as respect, love and empathy for others - off the mat, and into life, is quite another.
Please do what you can to support the fundraising activities for World Yoga Day, and therefore those living in Haiti. There is more information at:
