For Hispanic Heritage Month, Val Warner and Ryan Chiaverini welcomed Junior Board President Yari Jurado and incoming Vice President Savannah Alvarez on gala day. They talked about our three pillars, access, representation, and community, about losing our first studio and the search for the next one, and about what the night at the MCA would fund. Then everyone got on a mat: mountain pose, warrior two, and a reverse warrior, with the audience following along from their chairs.

The Chicago Reader spends graduation night at our Pilsen studio as 85 new yoga teachers from the 2025 and 2026 cohorts are celebrated: full scholarships, monarch butterflies, candlelight, and a community that, in Margarita's words, was never these walls and never an address.
