At 889, the 889 Karma Fund is our donation-based program, created to give back to the community in several meaningful ways. Every donation supports programs and initiatives that are close to our hearts and our hOMe. Through this program we have become proud supporters of the New Leaf Yoga Foundation. Most notably, a portion of 889 Karma donations goes toward a scholarship for the Living Yoga School program, helping a student pursue this path. 

Ways you can support the 889 Karma Fund

1. Take a class led by a Living Yoga School graduate

Our own Living Yoga School graduates lead a by-donation Community Class on our schedule. Offering this class also lets us support LYS graduates in their post-program studies and practice as they share what they have learned with the community. The class currently runs on Saturdays from 1PM-2PM. Our LYS graduates are Yoga Alliance certified as 200-hour yoga teacher graduates of our program. These classes help us support the growing Living Yoga School Scholarship program.

2. Attend a by-donation meditation circle

Every Monday at 5:15PM we hold a by-donation Meditation circle. All donations given in this class go to the New Leaf Yoga Foundation. 

3. Join our events throughout the year

Throughout the year we host a range of events that help us give back to community programs such as New Leaf Yoga. Alongside the time our teachers donate to the community, monetary donations from Yoga Unplugged events help support these initiatives. 

Programs we have supported in the past:
  • New Leaf Yoga;
  • Warriors for Peace;
  • And 889 LYP grads teach a weekly karma class to Regent Park school teachers teaching inner-city youth.

 

  • If you would like to contribute to the Karma Fund, you can do so with a cash donation, or by credit card or debit in-studio.
