At Light and Space, we believe yoga is for everyone and there are numerous ways we strive to be part of a larger community of yoga studios valuing our teachers, cultivating a sustainable business and also keeping the practice accessible and welcoming to all.
Pedro Shanahan has shown us the way with Donation Yoga in LA since 2000.
He trained with Steven Earth at Earth’s Power Yoga when mastodon still roamed this swamp, offered donation yoga at TwoHeadedHorse in the early oughts, before coming to join Sam and Lara at Yogala Echo Park for 9 years. He recently continued his training with Yoga by Joe K. in Mid-City, where he continues to offer classes, as well as here- at Light & Space.
COMMUNITY YOGA LA | Fridays 11am-12pm | By Donation $11+
In class, expect a fun, vigorous flow, with an emphasis on mindful breathing.
Accessible to all levels, the set will involve a standing sequence, a floor sequence, a core/abs/legs/butt-focus section, and restorative poses.
There will be music and focused movement, deep breathing, sweat, and hopefully, laughter.
Alignment adjustments and modifications will be offered as needed.
Compelling thoughts may occur.
A strong sense of calm could happen.
Come as you are. Pay what you can. All are welcome. 🌈
