Feed Your Spirit: A yoga fundraiser
The evening began with several of our WHY Outreach teachers sharing their stories and was followed by a powerful and energizing class led by Barbara Ruzansky.

Full Moon Madness fundraiser
On Saturday, April 28, we hosted our second full moon fundraiser at West Hartford Yoga. The joyful, quirky yoga class was led by WHY's Barbara Ruzansky and featured music by Hands On Drumming. The dimly-lit room was brightened by glow sticks, a full-moon projection, and the overall positive energy from every participant. It's the most fun yoga costume party around! Photos >>
