I met Halle in 2009, or maybe it was 2008, and I really was taken with the concept of donating yoga classes to Cancer Survivors. YogaBear helps people cope with reality. Life is unbearable at times, but in my experience it is the hard times that really define us as individuals, where everything is stripped away and all that is left is the essence of who you are. It in those humbling times that I feel we are called to be at our best and I think that YogaBear.org helps keeps grounded in that reality.
