 Global MALA Raleigh September 19 - 21, 2008 On September 19th - 21st, the Triangle yoga community unites with yogaSPARK as studios, teachers and organizations around the area raise awareness of the many styles, benefits and practices of yoga. Join the celebration! On this yogaSPARK weekend, we celebrate the International Day of Peace, the Autumnal Equinox and the Global Mala Project with our joined intention for creating peace and unity. Now in its second year, the goal of the Global Mala Project is to unite the yoga community from every continent in the world, forming a "mala around the earth" through collective practices based upon the sacred cycle of 108. Here in Raleigh, Evolve, Gateway and Blue Lotus yoga studios are coming together to offer a weekend of special Global Mala events! Rise up and participate in this opportunity to experience yoga as peace in action. In exchange for all Global Mala events we are asking for a by-class donation of $9-$18 or a weekend Deva Donation of $108. All proceeds collected from the three studios will go to support Prevent Child Abuse NC - infusing peace directly into our community.
