Blue Lotus Yoga was founded with a belief in the healing power of yoga and meditation. We have created a safe, welcoming community space to better guide healing, growth, trauma management, and stress reduction through our yoga classes, private session Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY), workshops, and many other services. Our model is designed to be accessible to all persons, experiences, and body types, while our scholarship program removes the cost barriers to yoga so that everyone can take part, regardless of financial means. We work to empower individuals to take charge of their own healing and in turn heal the larger community.
Preventative mental health practices are more important than ever, especially in underserved areas, like Woodlawn on the Southside of Chicago. Our trauma informed approach (based in TCTSY) has clinically proven benefits to all populations, particularly those who have experienced complex trauma and persons struggling with PTSD. At Blue Lotus, our TCTSY is currently focused on youth, women in treatment for addiction, and LGBTQ+ persons.
The cost of attending a yoga studio puts access out of reach for many of those who would see the greatest benefit. We are committed to creating opportunity for everyone through the Blue Lotus Community Fund Scholarship. The program covers up to 100% of a monthly unlimited membership to Blue Lotus Yoga and provides discounts on other services and workshops.
"I got the privilege using the scholarship program you have and it has practically changed my life. I was going through a lot at the time and I needed a way to cope, which it provided. I have always wanted to practice yoga effectively but did not have the means, you made that possible with the scholarship and the sound teaching at Blue Lotus Yoga." - Taram I, Scholarship Recipient -
