Join Pawling Yoga & Wellness for an evening of music, great food, dancing, and meaningful connection as we celebrate the resilience of our incredible community and invest in its future.
On July 4th, Pawling Yoga & Wellness lost our beloved studio at 26 East Main Street to a devastating fire. For an organization with big goals, this challenge was not on the roadmap.
In the aftermath of the tragedy, one thing is clear: the heart of Pawling Yoga & Wellness is not, and has never been, a building. It is the people we serve and the community that surrounds us.
Less than a week after the fire, we reopened in a temporary space. We are so grateful for the support of our neighbors in helping us continue to provide our wellness services—including sliding-scale Pay What You Can yoga classes, community clinic sessions, senior classes, bilingual programming, and youth wellness offerings—to community members even as we grapple with the loss of our space.
The sole purpose of our fundraiser on September 18 is to sustain these services for our neighbors over the next 12 months.
This year's theme, Keep Our Heart Beating, is both a promise and a heartfelt request: help us keep the programs you and our community value alive while we walk the long road back to a permanent home.
Every ticket purchased and every donation made helps us continue serving the participants of our existing programs, including:
- Subsidized Pay What You Can yoga classes that allow students of all backgrounds and income levels to participate.
- Pay What You Can Community Clinic that connects people to affordable wellness treatments like massage, acupuncture, reiki, yoga therapy, and more.
- Youth Wellness programming, which aims to foster community, connection and reduce the anxiety experienced in our younger people.
- Senior Wellness Initiatives, which bring yoga, creative activities, and family meals to the seniors in Pawling.
- Bilingual wellness programming, including our weekly bilingual yoga class.
