Top 5 Reasons to Become a Member of Iyengar Yoga Detroit Collective
5. We are creating a community-based model of ownership and management that is horizontal, equitable, and accessible. Instead of top-down, profit-driven, capitalist structures, we are co-creating our collective based on member needs. Yay, co-ops!
4. Support our Community Gift classes: At IYDC, Iyengar Yoga is meant for all, regardless of income. We have weekly $5 and up Community Gift classes to meet the needs of people of color, women, activists and artists, and for emotional health.
3. Rigorously trained teachers and ongoing teacher training: Iyengar Yoga teachers need a minimum of 1000 hours to get introductory certification, and thousands of hours more of continued learning through many more levels. That’s why we provide in-depth instruction, modifications for health and safety, and helpful adjustments. Your membership helps support our learning, and yours.
2. Monthly members benefits offer a 20% discount on drop-in passes. Regular attendance benefits from individual attention, camaraderie of small classes, welcoming and accessible teachers, and high-quality classes that cost half of what they would in other cities.
