Hello - my name is Patricia & I have been accepted into a Yoga Therapy Program with a focus on mental health that I have been considering for a year now. The program is quite expensive & I am therefore looking to raise funds to help me offset the costs.

Since becoming a yoga teacher in 2014, I have devoted myself to improving my knowledge & skills to be able to better help my clients. I have seen the healing power of yoga first hand as a volunteer yoga instructor in the psychiatric ward of an Ontario hospital where I work with youth in-patients ages 14 – 21.

This 2.5 year (1000+ hours) intensive training program will enable me to facilitate healing for others that is empowering, enduring & life transforming. While our current medical system has its uses, it also has limitations, & I plan to use yoga therapy in a hospital setting and/or private practice with a team of healthcare practitioners to help people not only overcome the health challenges that they face but to thrive.

I love being able to give people choices on how to manage their health & well-being & would be grateful for any assistance that you can offer to help me to continue to do this.
