Unity Woods Yoga Center Bethesda, 4853 Cordell Ave, Bethesda, MD, 20814, United States.

You are invited to participate in a special yoga fundraising event, Prana for Preemies, at Unity Woods Yoga on Saturday, November 5th.

Through our event, Prana for Preemies, we hope to shed some light on bronchopulmonary dysplasia and help babies and their families breathe easier. 

All proceeds will go to the Ava Potter Pilcher Fellow Research Fund, which provides Georgetown University Hospital NICU Fellows the financial support needed to conduct research specific to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

Yoga classes will be held for children and parents to spend time together in a meaningful way, while supporting a wonderful cause. Additional classes include beginner yoga for teens and tweens and their families and a nutrition class where parents can learn about the importance of nutrition in helping their little ones grow and thrive.

On November 5th, 2009, our daughter Ava arrived 11 weeks early weighing 2 pounds 11 ounces. A fighter from the get-go, she quickly let everyone around her know that she was no wall flower. As days turned into weeks turned into months in the NICU, Ava faced many challenges, including jaundice, multiple infections, surgery to eliminate her severe reflux, and most significantly, difficulty breathing on her own due to the prematurity of her lungs. Starting on a breathing machine called a C-PAP, Ava “graduated” to a nasal cannula just after the new year. Although progress was slow, eventually there was talk of her coming home, albeit on oxygen, a feeding tube, and multiple monitors. Regardless we were thrilled. And then, one week before she was due to come home, Ava’s health took a severe turn. Her heart rate increased dangerously, and her blood oxygen levels dropped severely. Within hours she was on a ventilator. One week later, on May 24th, the day that she had been scheduled to come home, we said goodbye to our brave and beautiful daughter. Although her time with us was far too short, the impact she made on all those who met her was significant. Her spirit, her courage and her smile are still with us every day.
