2024 Winter Solstice Fundraiser

On Tuesday, December 17, 2024 from 5:30-7:30 The Yoga Connection hosted its annual Fundraising event the Winter Solstice at New Garden Friends Meeting in Greensboro.

Our wonderful instructors — Mona Flynn, Mia Alsup, Alison Presley, Richard Bakker, and Sonal Chhawchharia — guided us through sun salutations, strengthening poses, gentle stretches, somatic experiences, and Yoga Nidra. Together, we welcomed the returning light while raising awareness and funds for The Yoga Connection’s mission to provide yoga for immigrant and refugee women in Greensboro.

The committee and volunteers dedicated themselves to creating a beautiful and inspiring evening. We hope you let your light shine brightly in the world. We invite you to join The Yoga Connection circle, as we are always on the lookout for more volunteers and yoga teachers.

If you couldn't attend but wish to contribute or support our cause, please visit our Get Involved pages.

A special thank you to our event photographer Rose Fama Hankins for capturing beautiful images.
