OG Yoga

OG Yoga At OG Yoga our mission is to deliver trauma and diversity sensitive yoga to support healing, resilience, self-development and positive social change.

https://linktr.ee/ogyoga OG Yoga was founded to provide the many benefits of yoga asana (practice) to San Diego’s most vulnerable communities. OG Yoga teaches students to focus their attention, calm their minds, reduce stress and pause to consciously respond rather than react out of habit. We deliver tools necessary to live in today’s fast-paced world. We help students become active participants in their health and wellness reconnect mind, body and soul.

You’re invited to a morning that’s as meaningful as it is magical. Join us at Coffee Cycle on Voltaire Street for a community event with live music, all-levels yoga, local treats, and a community that’s here to show up and feel it all.⁣

But here’s the deeper reason we’re gathering:⁣

When you invest in your own healing, you’re directly investing in someone else’s too. This event raises funds for OG Yoga’s trauma-informed programs — bringing accessible, affordable wellness to those who need it most: foster youth, justice-impacted individuals, BIPOC communities, and anyone who’s ever been told this kind of care isn’t for them.⁣

Come for the good vibes. Stay because you believe in wellness without barriers.⁣

“Healing isn’t just about thinking differently—it’s about feeling and embodying that shift.”⁣

Meet OG Yoga teacher Kaitlynn. After eight years in the Navy, Kaitlynn left in 2022, ready for a new chapter—one where she could fully show up for her daughter and herself. Yoga became her bridge to healing, helping her reconnect with her body, regulate her nervous system, and unlearn old conditioning.⁣

Now, she teaches trauma-informed yoga to veterans and parents, helping others find the same healing and self-awareness that transformed her life. When we heal ourselves, we heal our communities. 💛⁣
