108 Sun Salutations for the India Covid-19 Crisis
Cheryl Marren is raising money for Oxfam GB
Story
In response to the Covid-19 Emergency in India, I will be guiding any willing participants though a whopping 108 Sun Salutations Fundraiser Sunday 16th May at 10am live on Zoom - would you like to join in?
I will also be broadcasting the event live on Facebook and Instagram so that people can pop in and out to see how we are progressing and maybe make a donation there and then... don't worry, I'll be the only one on camera!
I am really moved to do this, to support those in need at this harrowing time. As Western Yogis, we borrow so much from the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of India. It's time we gave something back!
🇮🇳 You can come along, do as much or as little as you like, or just connect and support us as we move through the sequences...
🇮🇳If you're interested to join in, please get in touch so I can send you the meeting details...it will take about 90mins-ish to get through the 108 salutations...!
🇮🇳 ALL ARE WELCOME! Even if you don’t practice yoga, you’re welcome to join us to see what it’s all about!
Please don’t be put off by the enormity of the task! If you want to join in just for a few rounds or even just to offer your support, you’re still welcome to come along and join - there’s no pressure to do all 108 🙈
🇮🇳 Please donate if you can... every donation, however small, adds up to something bigger... 🇮🇳
