Yogathon 2015 to Raise Funds to Support Yoga Programs for Needy

Your practice today provides classes tomorrow for those challenged with health and life situation issues.

Mark your calendars yogis and yoginis! This is an event you won’t want to miss!

Three words - ALL DAY YOGA. Join us at Karma Yoga, 6710 Orchard Lake Rd, in West Bloomfield.


YES! - a true Yogathon! We’ll begin the day with a 6:30AM Ashtanga Class and finish it up 12 hours later with the healing sounds of a Gong Immersion! Sounds Ahhh-mazing!

Join us Saturday September 12th at Karma Yoga in West Bloomfield. Proceeds from the Yogathon go directly to provide no cost Yoga to underserved populations. These folks need it the most and have the least access to Yoga’s healing benefits. Let’s do all we can!

A $20 minimum donation per class is appreciated. Money generated at the Yogathon will support veterans, children, the chronically and terminally ill and other populations of metro Detroit so that they too can experience the healing benefits of Yoga.

Participants can register online at Eventbrite: YBDF-Yogathon-2015.eventbrite.com or drop-in (on a space-available basis).

Here’s the class schedule for the Yogathon!

•6:30 - 8:00 AM Ashtanga Yoga in the tradition of K. Pattabhi Jois with Matthew Darling
•8:15 - 9:30 Yoga Fusion with Allison Kaplan
•9:45 - 11:15 AM Tim’s (Vinyasa) Yoga with Tim Clark
