CONNECTION CREATES RESILIENCE
Light a Path's mission is to create resilience through connection.
We do this by bringing yoga, meditation, strength training and running
to youth, the incarcerated, the unhoused, older adults, veterans, and those in recovery.
Through connection to these modalities, and with devoted volunteers,
we facilitate the ultimate connection: to inner reserves of resilience, peace and wellness.
With 50 volunteers offering 30 weekly classes, we are building equity and inclusivity
by making evidence-based wellness tools accessible to all.

Recent Testimonial from a participant in our program for Incarcerated women"Dear Light a Path Friends,
Greetings! We are astonishingly in excellent spirits. This pandemic has us here, behind the wire, actually enjoying some vast improvements in our quality of life. The yards are open nearly all day. We have all the mats and bands in the houses. We may now take our food “to go” and eat at our leisure or outside as often as we wish. We are teaching classes daily to anyone who wants to come- teaching five classes a week, 90 minutes each, going on four weeks now. Two Strength, two Barre, and one Yoga. Each class has a Yoga Polisher. Even so, we miss you all terribly. It is with deepest joy and profound gratitude that we thank you for having trained and equipped us so very well to carry on and sustain our own Light a Path Community. Not a class goes by where each of you isn’t quoted, sourced, mentioned, thought of, and above all, cherished. You are, in fact, very much with us each and every day, and we are indeed with you at this time. Sending our love and hope that this letter finds you well. Until we meet again, stay safe. You are loved. Namaste." - J |
Join our New Campaign!
We believe connecting to each other, ourselves, and the world are essential in developing our collective well-being. During this time of increased social distancing the very nature of connection is being significantly altered. We are all learning to navigate new paths and find new practices that forge those healing connections and keep us grounded.
