About our Birth Equity Fund!!!
Pre-eveNT YOGA
11am: All levels, prenatal friendly, bring a mat.
Instructor Jess Luse was our first home birth as Well in The Desert Midwifery and her family has helped us plan this fundraiser! You can find her teaching at Yoga Oasis and working at Tucson Village Farm (after her maternity leave!) The class is before Slow Body opens, so there will be no observers.
$10 suggested donation.
100% of proceeds go towards the Equity Fund.
Starting at 12pm with artist Tiffany Huber (who has decorated a good portion of midwife Sarah’s body!)
Flash will be midwifery and reproduction themed!
Limited time slots are available, so be sure to get to there on time to sign up.
Flash Tattoos
It’s pie season people! And our lovely clients and community have generously donated a wide array of pies (including some allergen free pies).
They’ll be out from 12-5pm
$5 suggested donation per slice.
PIE MANIA!
Washers Tournament
1-3pm
What’s washers you say? Well, it’s like corn hole but better! Do you like throwing objects? Do you like landing things in holes? Do you wanna do this with friends and maybe win a trophy and a washers set? Well this is the game for you!
