Join us on Sunday Jan 8th for a Community Yoga class to benefit the ASPCA~
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. Our organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and with programs that extend our anti-cruelty mission across the country, we are recognized as a national animal welfare organization. We are a privately funded 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, and proud to boast more than 1 million supporters across the country.
As the first humane organization to be granted legal authority to investigate and make arrests for crimes against animals, we are wholly dedicated to fulfilling the ASPCA mission through nonviolent approaches. Our organization provides local and national leadership in three key areas: caring for pet parents and pets, providing positive outcomes for at-risk animals and serving victims of animal cruelty. For more on our work in each of these areas, please visit our programs and services page.
History
Incorporated in 1866 by a special act of the New York State legislature, the ASPCA has a history rich in challenges and victories-from providing care and protection for the city's working horses and transforming dog pounds into professionally run adoptions facilities to founding an animal hospital that is still running today. Read more about our history.
Mission
The ASPCA's mission, as stated by Henry Bergh in 1866, is "to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States."

Yoga Fusion DETOX Workshop
with Kevin Barnard and Kara Simard
Saturday January 14th
1-4:00pm
$30 if booked before January 7th
$35 if booked after January 7th.
Join Kara and Kevin on Saturday, January 14, 2012 from 1:00-4:00p.m. as we share a fusion of yin, power and restorative yoga focused on the  shoulders, hips, and pelvic region of the body.
Years of emotional trauma can settle into the body and hinder growth and flexibility -- We will take the time to build our practice and release the accumulation of stress and anxiety. Open up....and FREE UP!!!
This experiential workshop will blend the introspective nature of yin yoga, the challenge of a strong power practice and the healing qualities of restorative yoga. The weaving of these three styles of yoga will help create a space for you to go deep into your own personal experience and provide support for you to reduce stress and bring the body into balance, fostering healing.
The workshop will begin with 45 minutes of yin yoga, followed by an hour of power, 45 minutes of restorative yoga and conclude with a long, supported savasana. This is an All Levels workshop.
