Why I'm doing this

Tuesday 29th Sep

My dad had Alzheimer's, and although he lived a very active life that included yoga, toward the end he could no longer move the way he once did. We kept practicing together every week, adapting the poses to what he could do, and it always brought a smile to his face. Those weekly practices showed me how much light yoga can bring, even late in a long illness.

I have taught Iyengar Yoga for 20 years and own Sthira Studios in Providence. On the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, I'm leading Share the Light, an all-levels donation class that brings together the practice I love, my dad's memory, and support for the families and caregivers living with this disease today.

Join us: Monday, June 21, 2027, from 7:30 to 8:30 PM at Sthira Studios, 1155 Westminster Street, Suite 301, Providence. All levels are welcome and props are provided.

Can't be there? A donation of any amount helps. Our goal is to raise $1,500 for the Alzheimer's Association's care, support and research.
