Yoga props for the homeless

Dear all, 

I've started giving yoga classes at a homeless shelter in NYC. More accurately, it is a transition home for people who were previously living on the street and suffer from mental issues and / or substance abuse. Activities, including the yoga class I teach, are organized every week so that the "clients" as they are called find new activities they enjoy and new ways to occupy their time. 

The students are motivated, but it is difficult to teach without props (so far we only have mats and I bring my own blocks and belt) since their fitness level is limited. I am certain that they benefit from my teaching, yet I know they would benefit even more if I could use props to facilitate their practice. 

If you don't want to contribute money but have old props lying around that you would like to donate, that would also be very helpful. In that case please leave a comment and I will contact you.

The money will serve to buy blocks, blankets, bolsters and belts to help the students relax and reconnect with their body. Many complain of back pain which I hope to better address with the help of these props. 

I'm counting on you to help out! Your contribution will have a direct impact on the life of people trying hard to get to a better place in life.
