In light of the recent tragic events in Lebanon we feel compelled to do our part to contribute and support the people of Beirut. Join Jennifer Maagendans and Ruba Abughaida for a special Jivamukti class in solidarity with Lebanon. $5 per yogi who attends this class will go to the Humanitarian Coalition. All donations are matched by the Canadian government and will provide emergency relief to the people affected by the tragedy in Beirut.
