Donation-based class to benefit the Somaly Mam Foundation

I will be donating all proceeds from this class to the Somaly Mam Foundation to raise awareness and funding to help bring and end to sex trafficking.  Somaly Mam is a survivor of sex slavery who has dedicated her life to saving victims and empowering survivors of sex trafficking.

Classes take place at the beautiful Harlem Holistic Center, www.harlemholisticcenter.com. Come be a part of this vibrant community.  A small number of yoga mats are available for $1 if you'd like to try yoga before investing in one of your own.
