Yoga Reaches Out has selected the West Suburban YMCA as the beneficiary for their upcoming Kids Yogathon on Saturday November 2nd.  This event is open to kids ages 3-12 and their families and will provide an age specific yoga classes, fun instructional yoga throughout the afternoon, activities, music, a marketplace and a family yoga session at the end.

Registration costs are minimal but each child and/or family has a minimum fundraising goal – the proceeds raised will be in support of our Camper Scholarship Program to help send kids in need to one of our 5 summer camps. It will be a wonderful day truly focusing on our mission of helping our community and the mission of Yoga Reaches Out – kids helping kids.
