Help Us Build a Bridge to A New Location
We aim to continue to provide a welcoming space for healing, growth, and collective care, with the goal of working some magic so we can lay our mats down in a new studio space (hopefully on Lake Street!) in 2025. The road ahead will be very challenging, but we can still feel the excitement. With your support, we can write the next chapter of One Yoga together.
We Can’t Do This Without You, Our Community
An individual contribution of $50 or more today can help sustain our operations during this time and help One Yoga move to a new location.
We are committed to continuing to offer our schedule of mission-based classes, workshops, sliding-fee pricing, while seeking necessary funding through grants and loans for a relocation. Your financial support right now will be crucial in helping us cover ongoing operating costs like teacher and staff pay, technology and subscriptions, and rent and utilities.
Other ways you can help:
Become a sustaining donor and give a monthly gift
Start your own GTMD Fundraiser for One Yoga and have your friends/family support the cause
Bring a friend or two to a class with you
Get a friend or family member to become a member of One Yoga
The Honest Truth About One Yoga
This fall we reached a dire breaking point, and our business is no longer financially sustainable. We had hoped to thrive in the Ivy Arts Building, but despite steadily increasing our income over the past two years, we have been unable to sustain the organization in its current form. The barriers we face, particularly regarding the location and accessibility of our practice space, are becoming insurmountable. Change is needed, not only for us to survive, but also to thrive.
The Hope for the Future
One Yoga has the potential to move to a new location, and we have our eyes on Lake Street. A move to a new studio space would create more visibility, access, and alignment with our mission and vision, and is essential to creating a sustainable future for One Yoga. We are currently vetting three possible locations along East Lake Street, and much time and energy has already been put into this possible move over the past spring/summer. We need your financial support now to help us get to this new future on Lake Street.
We need to raise $4,000/month to bridge the gap in finances we currently have so we can continue operations while navigating securing funding for the buildout of the potential new studio.
Every $4,000 we raise buys us one more month of operations. We ask for your support in this vital effort and for your investment in the future of One Yoga. Your generosity will ensure that we can keep our doors open, while we navigate the next steps for our organization.
Thank you for being an essential part of the One Yoga family.
With gratitude,
One Yoga Leadership Team & Board of Directors
