NEWS AND THANK YOU'S
Yoga in the Community and St George Mental Health have recently joined forces in an effort to bring the many benefits of yoga to Mental Health consumers (service users) and carers. The program aims to offer students a supportive environment within which they can develop their practice. The program is planned to begin towards the end of October and will be led by Sarah De Graff. A huge thank you to all involved.
THANK YOU - Dear Yoga Aid - thank you so much for your support on our program with St George Mental Health. On behalf of all of us involved, we offer you our gratitude. Namaste.

Supporting the well-being of at-risk groups within Australia
What is Yoga in the Community?
Yoga in the Community is a not-for-profit organization that aims to support the mental, physical and emotional wellbeing of at-risk groups within Australia using the techniques of yoga and meditation.
Yoga in the Community was founded by yoga teachers Sue White and Katie Manitsas who saw a growing need to make yoga accessible and affordable to all whilst maintaining the integrity of authentic teachings.
The Yoga in the Community program will work in conjunction with other modalities (for example counselling and rehabilitation) – working to support activities within existing systems rather than outside of them.
