january is Y.O.G.A for youth month

i recently received an email update from Y.O.G.A. for youth, a non-profit that brings yoga classes to youth in after-school programs and juvenile detention centers, as well as to pregnant teens. during the month of january, many teachers and yoga studios will be donating the proceeds from their classes to Y.O.G.A. for youth.

take a look at the list below and see if there's a class that fits into your schedule (my apologies for posting this after some of the classes were held; i had family in town for the holidays... and you know how that goes):

note: raksa in culver city will be donating 5% of ALL january class proceeds; click here for their class schedule
