RED BANK: A NEW MOON, A NEW MISSION
Press release from Ode to the Moon Yoga
On Sunday, July 24, Ode to the Moon Yoga invites the public to join them on a new journey to aid the victims of domestic violence. Beginning at 6 p.m., a one hour yoga class will be held at Renaissance Pilates, located at 8 East Front Street in Red Bank. Sponsored by Mika Yoga Wear and Booskerdoo Coffee, the donation-based session will be accompanied by the live, soulful music of vocalist Allison LaRochelle.
Ode to the Moon began 2 years ago, starting very small. The goal was simple: to invoke discussion on the topic of domestic violence and raise money to benefit the efforts of 180 Turning Lives Around, a Monmouth County-based nonprofit organization that provides shelter and resources for the survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault.
Now, after a brief hiatus, Ode to the Moon will be going to a different studio each month this summer, leading to a big final 2016 event of the season in October (Domestic Violence Awareness Month) at the new Detour Gallery. All donations will go toward making Ode to the Moon Ode to the Moon a non-for-profit origination that breaks the silence about domestic violence through movement in yoga, visual art, and music.
