We've all heard passionate yoga practitioners tell us that absolutely anyone can do yoga--but is it true? This May, the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) is out to prove that almost anyone, anywhere in Canada, can gain the benefits of yoga--and help blind and partially sighted people achieve confidence and independence in their lives. Vancouver-based My Yoga Online, global resource for yoga, and mind-body health and wellness, is supporting the cause. Kreg Weiss, My Yoga Online co-founder and yoga teacher, is an official campaign ambassador--and committed to helping CNIB meet their goal of raising $300,000 for programs. "I'm excited to help CNIB share the benefits of yoga throughout communities, and honoured to join this campaign promoting whole wellness and inspiring people to reach their fullest potential," says Weiss. The Great Canadian Yoga Stretch is a national yoga fundraiser in support of blind and partially sighted Canadians. Fundraising is now open and the campaign will be officially underway from May 1-30. The campaign closes with the celebration events on May 29 or 30 in Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal, Halifax, and St. John's. Weiss is not only signing up as an ambassador, he's committed My Yoga Online resources to promoting the event, and providing membership passes as prizes. He'll also be teaching a class as part of the celebration events. Event info will be promoted to all of My Yoga Online's members, and Facebook and Twitter community. Weiss will also be reaching out personally to his friends and contacts to help raise money. Find out more about the Great Canadian Yoga Stretch at www.greatcanadianyogastretch.ca.
