When we first shared that Raja Yoga was becoming a nonprofit, our intention was to expand access to yoga, meditation, and wellness for all. That mission remains at the heart of everything we do.
As we’ve moved forward, we realized the best path is to let Raja Yoga Studio and the Raja Yoga Community Center (RYCC) run side by side:
Raja Yoga Studio will continue offering memberships, workshops, teacher trainings, and classes. This allows me, Kevin, to continue serving as both manager and teacher.
Raja Yoga Community Center (nonprofit) will focus on donation-based classes, scholarships, and outreach programs funded by donors, grants, and community support.
By keeping them distinct, we can serve the community more fully while ensuring that both the studio and the nonprofit remain sustainable.
For now, we’ll continue operating as Raja Yoga Studio, but we’ve added new donation-based and “pay what you can” options to make classes more accessible while we further develop the community services and outreach of RYCC. Subscription holders don’t need to worry—your monthly membership still covers all classes.

Update on My Health
I’m grateful to share that my most recent treatment for my back was successful, bringing welcome relief after months of pain. While I’m not 100% and still need to take it easy, I’ve returned to a full teaching schedule—so you’ll be seeing more of me in class.
These past few months have been challenging both physically and financially. Health issues prevented me from offering massage and other work that normally helps support the studio, all while balancing the effort of keeping the studio running and establishing RYCC behind the scenes. Thankfully, finding some relief from the chronic pain has renewed my energy and focus.
To help with the financial strain of a slow summer season combined with my limited ability to supplement the studio’s income, some generous members of our community kindly created a GoFundMe. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps sustain both the studio and our mission.
