$20.00 17th Annual Yoga for a Cause Yoga with Kittnes for Bowie Claw
Get ready for an enchanting and heartwarming experience like no other! Join us for Yoga with Kittens, a unique event that combines the joy of yoga with the irresistible charm of playful kittens—all while supporting a fantastic cause.
Imagine finding your zen in a gentle yoga flow, surrounded by adorable kittens who are eager to stretch, play, and cuddle alongside you. This event is designed to bring a smile to your face and warmth to your heart as you practice yoga in the company of these furry friends. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or new to the mat, this class is suitable for all levels, with the added bonus of kitten therapy!
This event is more than just a fun experience—it's an opportunity to make a difference. All proceeds will benefit the Bowie Citizens for Local Animal Welfare (Bowie CLAW), a dedicated group of compassionate volunteers advocating for the welfare of animals in the Bowie and Greater Bowie area. Bowie CLAW's mission is to promote the adoption, care, and humane management of animals through various community initiatives, including supporting local shelters, providing volunteer assistance, and running a successful Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program.
By participating in Yoga with Kittens, you're directly contributing to Bowie CLAW's efforts to improve the lives of animals in need. Your support will help provide essential supplies, medical care, and adoption services for countless cats and other animals in our community.
Not only will you leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated from your yoga session, but you'll also carry the satisfaction of knowing you've made a positive impact on the lives of animals in need. Plus, who knows? You might just meet your new feline friend!
Join us for this paws-itively delightful event, and let's stretch, play, and give back together!

Kimberly Murphy
Kimberly Murphy E-RYT500, C-IAYT, YACEP. Yoga is more than a practice or a class for Kim, it is a way of life. Spend any length of time around Kim and her three passions in life will become readily apparent, fitness, yoga and helping people. Like many people, Kim began her yoga journey in a yoga class after suffering from bouts of depression most of her life. It did not take many classes for Kim to realize that when yoga was part of her everyday routine she was able to see things in a positive way and as a result had more energy, felt alive and was able to face whatever challenge life brought her.
Kim’s passion for knowledge and helping others led her to teaching, but she will always be her first student. A continual student of Yoganand Michael Carroll, she is certified at the 200-hr level with Kripalu & Pranakriya Yoga and the 300-hr through the Pranakriya School of Yoga Healing Arts (PKSYHA) , as well as being certified with the International Association of Yoga Therapists, a Thai yoga therapist and a Reflexologist. Her passion for working with beginners has led her to become a Director of the Pranakriya 200-hr Yoga Teacher Training Program and she is training to lead the Meditation and Theory and Teaching program which is part of the 300-hour level certification with the PKSYHA. Kim is Leadership and Intensive certified in Y12SR Yoga for 12 Step Recovery and believes that yoga can heal the body from the inside out and is a necessary component of healthy living.
