Help Us Keep Yoga Therapy Accessible, Our Teachers Supported, and Our Mission Alive

Since 2005, AUM hOMe Shala has been transforming lives through yoga, yoga therapy, professional education, and compassionate community service. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit since 2009, our mission is to make these practices accessible to individuals from all walks of life, regardless of financial circumstances.

As an internationally accredited yoga therapy training school, we prepare knowledgeable, compassionate professionals to serve individuals facing diverse health challenges. Our work extends beyond professional education to include specialized continuing education, free community classes, affordable donation-based programs, and individualized therapeutic services.

From supporting individuals living with chronic pain, cancer, and mental health challenges to serving older adults, caregivers, and those navigating difficult life circumstances, we believe everyone deserves access to compassionate, therapeutic care.

Why Your Support Matters

Like many small nonprofits, AUM hOMe Shala faces ongoing financial challenges, particularly during periods of limited enrollment. Even when enrollment slows, the costs of maintaining professional accreditation, school registrations, technology, and educational programs continue.

Your donations help sustain these essential operations while preserving our commitment to accessible, affordable, and free community services.

Supporting the Teachers Who Serve Our Community

We believe the dedicated professionals who make our programs possible deserve fair compensation.

For our donation-based community classes, 75% of donations go directly to our instructors, while the Shala retains just 25% to help cover essential operating expenses, including technology, administration, and program promotion.

Your generosity helps us maintain this teacher-centered approach without placing additional financial burdens on the individuals and families we serve.

Your Gift Makes a Difference

Every donation, regardless of size, helps sustain our nonprofit, support our teachers, maintain our accredited educational programs, and keep yoga therapy accessible.

This Give Miami Day, please help us continue more than 20 years of service—bringing education, healing, and hope to our communities.

Together, we can make a meaningful difference. 💜

Mission

AUM hOMe Shala is dedicated to advancing the therapeutic benefits of yoga through education, professional training, and compassionate community service. Guided by the principle of “unity in diversity,” we embrace the richness of yoga's traditions and approaches while fostering an inclusive environment that honors individual differences, abilities, and needs.

Since 2005, we have educated and prepared yoga teachers and yoga therapists to share the transformative benefits of yoga. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit since 2009, we are committed to making yoga and yoga therapy accessible to people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds, including children, adolescents, older adults, individuals living with disabilities or chronic health conditions, and underserved communities.

Our mission is non-discriminatory, inclusive, and ecumenical. Through professional education, continuing education, community programs, and outreach, we bridge traditional yogic wisdom with contemporary, evidence-informed approaches to health and well-being.

We believe yoga and yoga therapy can foster healing, resilience, connection, and a healthier, more compassionate society.

Your support on Give Miami Day helps us carry this mission forward—expanding access to yoga therapy, supporting our educators, and strengthening the communities we serve.
