Welcome to Yogis Unite!
"Yogis Unite, Inc., serves as an instrument of unification for those involved in yoga and other physical art forms, joining us together in the spirit of service." Mission Statement from the Founders/Directors of Yogis Unite
Service to others is the payment you make for your space here on earth. Mohammed Ali
A lot of people are waiting for Martin Luther King or Mahatma Gandhi to come back -- but they are gone. We are it. It is up to us. It is up to you. Marian Wright Edelman
It is time for action.
Yogis Unite and Town Square under the Sports Medical Direction of Dr. Randa Bascharon are preparing to launch a community service based Wellness Program for the citizens of Las Vegas. The launch is scheduled for the weekend of October 10th and 11th with an unsurpassed community wellness/fitness fair. After the launch, it is our desire to offer regular fitness classes, community events, promotions to introduce local wellness/fitness affiliations, and a built in walking program promoting the benefits of joining in community to walk 2 miles a day.
Although fitness is a major component of this program, the underlying theme is Wellness. "Wellness is generally used to mean a healthy balance of the mind, body and spirit that results in an overall feeling of well-being," Halbert L. Dunn, M.D. While formulating this program, the conclusion was drawn that perhaps the most beneficial act of service for Las Vegas residents is to provide the spirit of community.
I think all of us who live here realize that we lack in centers outside of The Strip where we can relax, enjoy, meet our neighbors, listen to music, play with our children, and feel a sense of 'home town'. One major aspect of mental wellness is a feeling of connectedness, a sense of belonging.
The program will be operated as a public charity under the 501c3 status of Yogis Unite. It will be operated by volunteers and self-supporting. Any profits earned after expenses will be donated to another public charity. Volunteers working together in service to promote community... it's perfect.
I am forming sub committees now and you are definitely someone who can help. Please let me know if you have some time to talk.
I hope you will join us.
Namaste,
Sharon Jalene
