At Kindred, our mission is to share the joy of yoga and it’s infinite health benefits with our community while providing a safe, judgement free environment that people can feel comfortable expressing themselves in. Our motto is “Yoga for Everybody.” Every body type, gender identity, sexual orientation and skin color. We want all of our costumers to know that and use yoga as a tool to heal and grow – emotionally, physically and mentally.
