Recently, our Managing Director Yizza Galdamez joined Media Connecticut on For the People to have a conversation about the heart of our work at Yoga In Our City.

Our mission is rooted in the belief that yoga is for everyone—regardless of age, background, or ability. By offering no-cost classes in public parks across Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, and Waterbury, we create welcoming spaces where people can move, breathe, and connect.
