Uniting for a Cause: Yoga Stops Traffick Charity Event 2022
Beatriz Mangado | MAY 14, 2023
At Butterfly Spirit Yoga Studio, we are committed to using our practice to make a positive impact in the world. One cause that holds great importance to us is the fight against human trafficking.
In March 2022, we once again joined hands with the global Yoga Stops Traffick community to raise awareness and funds for this critical cause.
Through a donation class and a social media challenge, we came together to support survivors and contribute to the mission of unity, support, survival, courage, and gratitude.

Our donation class took place online, bringing together yoga practitioners from all corners of the globe. Led by our skilled instructors, we embarked on a Hatha grounding sequence that was accessible to practitioners of all experience levels.
The sequence aimed to create a sense of balance and energy within our bodies, minds, and spirits. Through our collective practice, we not only benefited ourselves but also contributed to a larger cause.
In addition to the donation class, we co-hosted the inspiring #YogiSayNOtoTraffick challenge on social media. This worldwide challenge brought together yoga enthusiasts, sponsors, and fellow teachers who shared their open-heartedness and warrior poses. These poses symbolized the qualities that lie at the heart of Yoga Stops Traffick: unity, support, survival, courage, and gratitude. By participating in the challenge, we aimed to raise awareness within our communities and encourage others to join the cause.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the generous donors, participants, sponsors, and fellow yoga teachers who contributed to the success of our charity event. Your support and contributions not only helped raise awareness but also made a tangible impact in the lives of survivors and those at risk. By coming together as a global yoga community, we are making a difference and showing our commitment to creating a world free from trafficking.
Yoga has the power to unite and create positive change. Through our participation in the Yoga Stops Traffick charity event, we have demonstrated our dedication to using our practice for a greater purpose.
We believe in the importance of unity, support, and spreading awareness about the realities of trafficking. Together, we can make a difference and contribute to a safer and more compassionate world.
We thank each and every one of you for your donations, appreciation, and efforts to raise awareness within your communities. Let us continue to stand together and say NO to trafficking.
