***Virtual Yoga Benefit for BYC*** Cultivating Presence as Your Own Ground a Workshop with Diane Sherman Friday, October 30, 6-7:30 pm... This workshop is a benefit to support Berkeley Yoga Center to keep its doors open. If you’ve been a student of mine for a long time, you’ve most likely practiced with me on Thanksgiving or New Year’s AT BYC at some point. Due to COVID, BYC needs community support to keep its doors open. The BYC community has been a home to me and my teaching, which has served many. I hope you can join this evening! Feeling anxious, ungrounded and uncertain? These are common occurrences for many in the Fall when Vata is stirred. Compound these Vata disturbances with the turbulent times we are navigating and many of us feel anxious and unsettled. This Friday evening’s workshop encourages you to turn inward and find that ground in the ever changing moments of life by opening to pure presence. The truth is, there IS no certainty in life, and yet we cling to the illusion of certainty. We are being challenged to find stability in a completely different way. Join me and your community for a nourishing practice which invites you into the magnificence of each moment, no matter what’s happening. This workshop is a benefit to support Berkeley Yoga Center, a place I’ve considered home as a teacher for nearly two decades. Please come and support BYC to keep its doors open while enjoying community and your own deep presence. HOW IT WORKS: Pay BYC directly for your class.

WE NEED YOU! BENEFIT EFFORTS FOR BYC After six months of standing empty, Berkeley Yoga Center is coming to a critical inflection point. We are reaching out to you for financial support to help us weather the situation so that we will all have a beautiful studio to return to once the pandemic has passed. Our goal is to raise $10,000. This will cover several months' rent, which is our biggest expense. To meet this ambitious goal, we will need your help spreading the word widel...y to your communities. If enough people can help, we can do this! If you love BYC as much as we do, and you want to see us survive, please consider helping us out. If you are able to donate, details on how to do this are below. We'll also be hosting a series of Benefit Classes in October, and you may rent props to support your own practice and BYC at the same time. Details coming soon. Make a donation. Any amount, large or small, will be gratefully received. You can make your donation directly to BYC via Venmo: @Berkeley-YogaCenter or PayPal: [email protected]. Checks are also welcome.
