Art Aids Art invites yoga practitioners to join us in improving the health and well being of the men, women and children of South Africa. 

We have made contact with two working yoga teachers who are native Xhosa speakers and residents of Khayelitsha, South Africa's second largest township.  They have tentatively committed to hold a weekly yoga class at eKhaya eKasi Center, making it one of our pilot programs and the only such offering in an area faced with devastating poverty and a 35% HIV/AIDS infection rate. 

Here is where you come in.  With the collective effort of generous yoga practitioners, the modest bit of funding needed to support this project will be within reach.  Classes cost of approximately $20 per session, and we hope to offer them weekly.  This would mean $80 per month. 

If your yoga studio or community can commit to a contribution of, for example, $1 per person/per month, it will help to make this dream come true at a remarkably modest cost.

Please contact us by email for further details.  To make an online contribution, enter the amount in the box at the bottom left of this page. 

Thank you for reaching around the world to spread the healing power of yoga!
