FREE COMMUNITY YOGA CLASSES
We believe in health and wellness access for all
We want to make yoga and meditation available and accessible to all people because life is hard and we all need a little stress relief!
At Lotus Yoga Studio we believe that yoga and it’s stress relieving benefits should be available to anyone and everyone who want to try it. However, we recognize that not everyone has access to practice in the yoga studio. Through our give back projects, or Seva in Sanskrit, we strive to break down barriers to yoga and meditation access by donating mats, offering free community classes and teaching wherever we are needed.
Some ways we give back:
Lotus Community Yoga Project - Free yoga classes in the park all summer long!
In June 2017 Lauren Farenga-Kosmidis, owner of Lotus Yoga Studio, Founded the Lotus Community Yoga Project (formerly called the Free Yoga Project) to promote health and wellness in her hometown of Medford, MA. Since then the Lotus Community Yoga Project has grown into an annual program offering free community yoga in the park to anyone wants to try it, every weekend, all summer long. This annual yoga tradition is so much fun!
We offer weekly free classes at the local library, free and open to all!
Seva Scholarship for YTT - scholarship for students who show promise in teacher training but need financial assistance to take the training
Fundraiser Classes - raising funds and awareness for local and global causes.
Re-Yoga donation program - we donate gently used mats and props to communities we teach in who can’t afford the cost of equipment
During the pandemic we donated over 200 yoga blocks, 50 yoga straps and more than 150 yoga mats to individuals and organizations in our surrounding area who needed supplies to practice yoga at home.
We love sharing yoga with others and breaking down barriers to health and wellness access.
Thats it. We just simply love it.
