Will there be puppies?

We don’t always have puppies, nor can we expect when we will get them. Animals come to us for a variety of reasons! Whether they are surrendered, found as strays, seized by our peace officers, and so on. Due to this unpredictability, we can’t confirm if we will have them.

Will there be drinks and snacks?

Yes! Coffee from Hammer & Chip, Rviita Energy Teas, and protein treats from The Cravory Lab! Be mindful that there will be animals around so hand washing and disposal of garbage will be monitored.

What if I've never done yoga?

That is totally OK! Humankind offers a space for all yogis (new and old) to step into their practice in a gentle and beginner friendly way. At this event specifically, we will probably be doing more giggling and smiling than holding yoga postures. Try not to take yourself too seriously :)

Paws For a Cause: Yoga at The Humane Society

By Humankind

Overview

Come join us for a fun yoga session with adoptable animals - plus a mental health chat - all to raise money for The Humane Society

Paws For a Cause 3.0: Yoga Event

The Calgary Humane Society has graciously offered their facility for us to host this AMAZING community event, centered around the positive mental health impacts of mindfulness, connection and companionship.

Join Humankind for a mental health chat, intentional connections and did we mention... animal yoga?

*As long as The Humane Society has some furry friends in the facility, they will be joining you on your mat! If they don't have puppies - we will be sure to bring out some other furry pals!*

Following this 3 hour event, expect to walk away with a new friend (human and/or puppy) and the positive effects of slowing down and being mindful.
