On Saturday, June 27th the surviving members of the Grateful Dead will take the stage in Santa Clara, California for the first of five final performances together in celebration of the band’s 50th anniversary. Come join other Deadheads and yogis that afternoon, well before the show, for a yoga celebration of the band, their music and their historic legacy with a fund and friendly all-level flow class set to the music of the Grateful Dead and friends.

All proceeds from this class will go to Nepal earthquake relief through The Seva Foundation, a Charity Navigator 4-Star organization. Founded in 1978, Seva’s mission is to bring eye care and other health services to those struggling with poverty, and has helped more than 3.5 million people see again. In 1979 the Grateful Dead raised over $100,000 at a benefit concert to help launch the organization. Seva has a strong presence in Nepal and is utilizing its existing infrastructure there to help bring relief to victims of the recent earthquakes.
