The Yoga Mala is a celebration of community spirit. Since 2009, our yoga community has come together annually in a joyful fundraising event, complete with heartwarming reunions, tears of hope, hugs and kisses! The three-hour yoga session taught by Yoga in Action faculty and other teachers in the community usually includes 108 Sun Salutes, chanting, and meditation and is open to all levels of yoga students.

The 13th Annual Yoga Mala will have a different look. Our 2021 Mala will be held on February 21st and live-streamed from Rivermill Landing in Dover, NH as well as additional remote locations. Our intention is to, as always, bring our yoga community together around a common purpose, to celebrate the healing gifts of yoga and to build community resilience, together. COVID-19 won't allow us to squeeze 200 yogis together in a room, but hope to cultivate the same type of healing energy, virtually. This year you can participate in the Yoga Mala from anywhere in the world! (Not able to join on February 21st? All registrants will have access to the stream for a full month to view at your leisure!)

Options to Participate:

Livestream Access: Register for $50 and fundraise! While this is an exceptional event on its own, the Yoga Mala is ultimately a fundraiser which Yoga in Action relies on to fund our programs. We ask registered yogis to reach out to friends, family and colleagues to solicit donations to support Yoga in Action.
Livestream Access: Register for $150 and skip fundraising! This is a guilt-free pricing option, where you pay a higher rate and leave the fundraising to others. In essence, you make a personal donation, yourself. (Please note: While, you have no obligation to fundraise further, the system will still create a fundraising page for you. This allows you to join the team of your choice!)

Yoga in Action provides free and accessible yoga classes. Our programs promote resilience in our community by supporting individuals living with cancer, individuals with disabilities, trauma survivors, people in recovery from substance misuse, people who are incarcerated and more.
We appreciate our supporters, present and past, who have helped Yoga in Action improve access to the therapeutic benefits of yoga regardless of social, physical, and financial barriers. We envision a world where all people realize their power to connect, transform, heal and thrive through yoga.

Thank you to the Yoga Mala 2021 Supporters who make this event possible!
