The best part? Anyone can take the challenge. Whether you're sighted or living with vision loss, whether you're a seasoned yogi or a complete newbie, whether you're young in years or just young at heart – you can enjoy with the Great Canadian Yoga Stretch.

It's simple . . .

FIRST, register.

NEXT, set your stretch goal.

Complete your first yoga class, tackle a 30-day challenge, master a headstand – it's up to you!

Where the Money Goes

Funds raised in the Great Canadian Yoga Stretch will go to CNIB, helping Canadians with vision loss to enhance their independence, achieve their goals and lead fulfilling lives.

Today, there are 836,000 people in Canada living with significant vision loss. In the next 25 years, that number is expected to double.

CNIB's goal is to be able to help every last one of those Canadians by ensuring they have the confidence, skills and opportunities to fully participate in life.
