Saluting the sun

Yoga enthusiasts from the Peninsula will unite to salute the sun from 11.30am on Sunday, November 14, by taking part in the 2010 Yoga Aid Challenge.

This charity event is being held at Umina Beach Surf Life Saving Club.

The yoga practice is led by local yoga teachers Helen Macnair, Carolyn Glover and John Wilson and participants are encouraged to complete as much of the challenge as they can

Umina is one of 33 locations across Australia where local communities will come together to raise money for charity and raise awareness of the benefits of yoga.

This is the third year that the Peninsula yogis have taken part in the event, last year raising over $5000 for Multiple Sclerosis Australia.

This year, participants will raise money for the 2010 Yoga Aid charity partners including the Nelune Foundation, dot com mob and Barnardos.

About 50 people are expected at Umina Beach.
