We are raising £1000 to provide 10 yoga sessions at the WomenCentre, supporting up to 20 women per class.

For many of the women who attend, this isn’t just a yoga class. One participant shared:

“We will be lost without yoga. It has helped me with my panic attacks and breathing issues. This is like medication for me.”

Another said:

“I love the yoga lessons. It always calms me down and I feel more connection with myself. It’s calm, bright and full of joy.”

These sessions provide:

• Emotional regulation

• Relief from anxiety

• Physical movement

• Community and connection

• A safe, supportive space

With your help, Umbrella Yoga - a non-profit CIC based in Kirklees - can provide 8 sessions, creating 160 opportunities for women to access the mental and physical health benefits of yoga. These sessions take place at WomenCentre in Kirklees, which has supported and empowered women to achieve a better quality of life through Prevention, Intervention, Recovery and Empowerment services for over 40 years.

£10 supports one woman for one session

£90 funds an entire class

£750 funds the full 8-week programme

We believe every woman should have access to the healing benefits of yoga — regardless of her circumstances. Thank you for helping us make that possible.

As a Thank You, everyone who donates is invited to a restorative and energising yoga session at the end of the campaign, led by Umbrella Yoga, and hosted at WILD Aerial Fitness & Dance studio in Slaithwaite.

Please ensure you opt in to share your contact details so we can send you the invitation.
