Community Fundraising

At Esther Myers Yoga Studio we believe that a deeply reflective yoga practice helps us clarify how we interact with those in our immediate community, across Canada and around the world.  We feel that reaching out to others honours Esther Myers’ legacy of integrity, authenticity and giving.

Fundraising at the Studio

With the generous support of our Studio community and their families and friends, we have been able to raise tens of thousands of dollars for worthy organizations that function responsibly, funnelling donations directly to those who need it most.

Special rates for classes

For those within our Studio community we offer reduced rates for classes and workshops for those with financial concerns.

Volunteer teaching by EMYS Yoga Teacher Training students

Our Teacher Trainees do volunteer teaching for populations in need as part of their training. Some of the organizations involved with this programme include CAMH (Centre for Addiction and Mental Health), The Jean Tweed Centre and the CNIB (Canadian National Institute for the Blind). The relationships that are cultivated through volunteering for these and other local organizations have often continued for years, benefitting both teachers and students.

Each year we hold a fundraiser.  All events offer an opportunity to spend a pleasurable couple of hours meeting and chatting with fellow students, practising yoga or a related modality and sharing lunch or tea.  100% of the proceeds from these events is donated to a designated charity.
