Here at Lion’s Roar, we like to point out people doing good work for others in need. Think for example of our recent posts about the fine folks at the Reciprocity Foundation or (most recently) Karuna-Shechen. Well, here’s another not-for-profit group to tell you about: Yoga Gangsters, which seeks to bring yoga to at-risk youth. Terri Cooper, YG’s founder, just appeared on NBC 6 Today in South Florida; watch here, after the jump, to learn about their work.
