Giving Tuesday: Piyodaflow.com/donate Our community showed up for us in a big way last week at our fundraisers — and we’re feeling so grateful.

Losing our state funding changed a lot for us, but it also reminded us of something real: this space has always been held up by the people who dance here, teach here, raise their kids here, and care about keeping culture alive.

Every contribution helps us continue offering classes that stay affordable, welcoming, and rooted in our traditions. It also helps us keep PiYoDa open as a cultural home for anyone seeking connection, movement, and wellness.

We’re working to raise $ 10,000 by the end of 2025.
If you’d like to support, we’re grateful for you.
If you share this post or spread the word, we’re grateful for you too.

Thank you for helping us keep this space and its programming going.

ES:

Nuestra comunidad estuvo con nosotros en grande la semana pasada en nuestro primer evento de recaudación — y estamos profundamente agradecidos.

Perder los fondos estatales cambió muchas cosas para nosotros, pero también nos recordó algo verdadero: este espacio siempre ha sido sostenido por las personas que bailan aquí, enseñan aquí, crían a sus hijos aquí y que se preocupan por mantener viva la cultura.

Cada contribución nos ayuda a seguir ofreciendo clases accesibles, acogedoras y arraigadas en nuestras tradiciones. También nos ayuda a mantener PiYoDa como un hogar cultural para quienes buscan conexión, movimiento y bienestar.

Estamos trabajando para recaudar $10,000 antes de que termine el 2025.
Si deseas apoyar, estamos agradecidos por ti.
Si compartes esta publicación o ayudas a correr la voz, también te lo agradecemos.

Gracias por ayudarnos a mantener este espacio en movimiento.

Reunited with 🌞 🌖 self+ family&friends this summer 🇧🇪🇮🇹🇬🇷🇫🇷. Reclaiming slowly who I am. This 7 year cycle is over. 😅 I had almost given up on some family dreams and visions, yet life shows truth. So many friends shared how my 💡 is slowly coming back ☺️🤩 let’s keep it shining. Patience is key. Got to reclaim my femininity around all kinds of rivers, sea and ocean 💦, and randomly sell vegetables in the most beautiful French Market in Sanary with my dear longtime friend Gyslaine. Thankful for DAILY nature to recalibrate and be ready for what’s to come!!!! Our last evening was a full moon over Callian reminding me life and its cycles. Thanks to Mom for her endless support. Had the best month with my son. We had a blast #almostptsdfree #mentalhealthmatters #theworldisyours taken in Village Evenos by @piyodaneva
