OuR Impact
Our mission is to create resilience through connection. We do this by bringing yoga, meditation, strength training and running to five underserved populations in and around Asheville, NC; Youth, the Incarcerated, the Unhoused, Seniors, Veterans, and those in Recovery. Through connection to these modalities, and to a devoted volunteer, we facilitate the ultimate connection; to inner reserves of resilience, wellness and peace. We are building equity and inclusivity by making evidence-based wellness tools accessible to all.
