Local Yoga Events for National Veterans Week

Veterans Yoga Project is organizing a special event to showcase a collective appreciation for, and offer tangible help to, American veterans. Yoga students of all levels are invited to honor the nation’s veterans by attending a benefit yoga or meditation class during Veterans Week, November 9-15, as part of a National Yoga Event to Help Support Our Warriors.

Three events will take place in Connecticut. On November 7 from 3:30 pm-4:45 pm, a benefit yoga class taught by Dan Libby will take place at Your Community Yoga Center in Hamden ($20 suggested minimum donation). Neiley Snide will teach two classes at Taftville’s A Peace of Space ($15-25 suggested minimum donation) on November 15 from 9:30 to 10:45 am and 11:00 am to 12:15 pm. Veterans are invited to attend any of these classes but are not expected to make a donation.

More than 30 yoga classes across the country are being conducted to help raise awareness and funds that will help Veterans Yoga Project accomplish its mission to support recovery and promotes resilience among veterans, their families and their communities.
