Donation Based Stretch Class
Bend & SNAP
Because of the government shutdown, many families have lost their SNAP benefits and are struggling to afford groceries. As a small studio, we may not have much to give, but we believe in showing up where it counts. This donation-based class is our way of helping. 100% of proceeds will go directly to a local food bank to support families in need.
Why is it important to support
right now?
It’s more important than ever to support our community right now. With SNAP benefits paused during the government shutdown, families who rely on them are facing impossible choices between basic needs. We may not have much to give as a small studio, but this is one way we can show up, by offering what we do have: our space, our energy, and our collective effort. Every small act of generosity adds up to something powerful.
Whether it’s bringing nonperishable foods, donating the cost of a yoga class, or simply sending this to a friend who may be interested, it all helps make sure our neighbors don’t go without.
When we give what we can, we remind each other that compassion still circulates... and that community care is something we can always stretch a little further.
Donations go directly to our local food bank (via Venmo or PayPal) or you bring your donation to class in the form of non-perishable foods
What to Expect:
This class is donation based! Please show us a confirmation of donation to our local food bank (Taste and See Local) or bring non-perishable foods for us to drop off. If you are new to the studio you will have to make an account to sign up but you will not be charged. If you already have a package, your package will not be charged for this session. Expect deep, calming stretches and a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone is welcome.
What to Bring:
Bring all of your normal yoga gear (mat, bolsters, blankets, water, etc).
Whatever is not brought will be provided at the studio although yoga mats are limited. Please come early if you need to borrow one. We have plenty of other props for you.
Please bring water and wear comfortable clothes!
A few things to note:
Sign-Up Required: Please register online individually to reserve your spot. Spaces are limited, and we cannot accommodate day-of walk-ins once we’ve reached capacity. Feel free to bring friends and family, just make sure everyone registers separately so we can plan accordingly.
Please arrive at least 10 minutes early to secure your spot, gather any necessary equipment, and settle in. Doors will be locked after the class begins to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted session.
