Inclusivity Scholarship for Yoga Retreat in Costa Rica with Robin Shaw and Chandra Cantor, February 11-18, 2023
Help defray costs for BIPOC, LGBTQ or other underrepresented participants who need financial assistance in order to attend!
We are creating scholarships for our Yoga Retreat in Costa Rica this year because we want to bring a beautiful experience to folks who might not otherwise be able to come on a yoga retreat. We envision a world where everyone is supported and no one is left out. We are sensitive to the ways in which certain identities (specifically black, indigenous, people of color, as well as LGBTQ folks) are and have long been exhausted and systemically and sometimes personally oppressed, causing among other things, wealth, inclusion, and accessibility gaps. This scholarship is a form of social justice and reparation. We have always had the attitude of “paying forward” this experience, encouraging our students to bring the personal gifts of the retreat experience out into their communities. This year’s scholarship is a deepening of that attitude. Thank you for participating!
We offer these scholarships based on financial standing, and level of access to wealth, as well as to support individuals who self-identify as belonging to an underrepresented and/or marginalized group, including but not limited to race/ethnicity, sexual identity, gender identity, and/or other unique identities we do not know to name. We are excited to share in experiences of self realization, presence, movement, joy, relaxation and rejuvenation.
We will award scholarships as funds allow. The funds will go directly towards the cost of the retreat. The number of scholarships we are able to award is directly related to the amount of donations we receive. Please consider contributing generously.
We are so grateful for this opportunity!
Thank you for your donation, no matter how small or large.
