RSSYoga trip to Rwanda
Join Metta Journeys' inaugural trip to Rwanda May 3-11, 2008 with yoga teachers Sarah Powers, Janice Gates, and Chandra Easton. Daily yoga and meditation classes will be offered along with the opportunity to visit sacred sites and meet women who have played an instrumental part in rebuilding and bringing peace to their country after the 1994 genocide. A portion of the trip price will be donated to Women for Women International to support their work with the women of Rwanda. This trip is limited to 20 participants so some advance planning is in order. For more information, visit www.mettajourneys.com, email deepak@mettajourneys.com, or call 888-886-2425.
