Imagination Yoga
We are so thankful for our collaboration with Imagination Yoga. They provide amazing workshops and retreats together with us in Aruba to increase resilience and tools for support, for both children and the participants. They have also chosen to donate the profit from these events to the Yoga Girl® Foundation. Imagination Yoga is a Yoga Alliance Continuing Ed provider.
Why do you want to work with the Yoga Girl® foundation?
Imagination Yoga has been following the Yoga Girl Foundation since it was founded. We are so inspired by the good work and mission that the YGF has of a world where every woman and child is safe, loved and free from harm. When we read the staggering statistic that half of the children in Aruba are victims of abuse, we felt massive action was and is the only option in the face of this reality, we felt called to do whatever we could to be service. We believe that our trainings and services could be helpful to the women and children we collectively serve, which is why we are so excited about this partnership!
What are your goals or wishes with the partnership?
It is our vision that through this partnership we will be able to offer workshops and trainings that will provide teachers, mental health professionals, care-givers, yogi’s and parents, both on and off the island, tools they need to inspire bold kindness, resilience and mindfulness to the children they serve. We also hope to raise awareness of how important it is to “Believe Children” when they speak their truth! By partnering to offer workshops, trainings and limited edition apparel we can collectively raise money for the foundation and infuse more love, kindness and calm in the world. Be of Service to Children, Be of Service to the World.

Believe children t-shirts
"We started the Believe Children movement, because it's TIME to create a culture where adults listen to and believe this young generation of wisdom keepers. When a child speaks their truth and an adult believes them, it can change everything. We imagine children seeing 'BELIEVE CHILDREN' shirts on the adults in their community and knowing that they have a safe space to talk and be heard and most importantly believed.”
For every Believe Children t-shirt sold, $4 will be donated to the foundation. Buy your t-shirt here
