Dear Friends, 

Here's to a great New Year! 2016 was such an incredible period of transition and growth for all of us here at Street Yoga. We are awed and grateful to have such a dedicated community with whom to share our vision and can't wait to see what 2017 has to offer!


Because of your support and donations in 2016, we were able to provide support to more than  1000 local youth and  facilitated  16 trauma-informed workshops   throughout the country. 


We couldn't have accomplished so much without your help! We are now more than ever committed to changing the conversation around trauma related treatment and yoga, as well as reaching more trauma-affected youth through our programs. With your continued support and dedication, together  we will encourage healing and hope for more youth in 2017! 


Changing lives, one breath at a time. 


With Gratitude,

Richelle, Jillene and Veronica.
The Street Yoga Team

Glassybaby located at University Village will be holding a special event on February 11th, 2017; in which 10 percent of all in-store sales will benefit Street Yoga. 

If you haven't decided what to get your sweetheart for Valentine's Day, these tea light holders are a beautiful gift that support a great cause.

Evolving from Lee Rhodes cancer journey, Glassybabys are small, practically indestructible blown-glass votives that symbolize for her "that deep breath we often forget to take." Unique and individual, Glassybabys come in more than 70 translucent colors that flicker and glow - like life.   

The University Village Glassybaby is located in the main corridor near the children's play structure. For more information about their hours and location, visit their website.
