About Yoga for Alex
In May 2016, Alexander Kelston – a son, brother, and friend – took his life after a long battle with depression.
Yoga for Alex is an event to celebrate his life and raise money for depression research. We ask yoga teachers to dedicate a class to Alex and donate the proceeds to the Hope for Depression Research Foundation.
Alex traveled the world and built a community that spanned the globe. Join us by creating a class, taking a class, making a donation, and spreading the word!
