Kayoko Mitsumatsu

As an avid yoga practitioner in Los Angles, Kayoko founded Yoga Gives Back in 2007, a non-profit organization whose mission is twofold: first, to mobilize the global yoga community with gratitude, and second, to empower women and children in India to build sustainable livelihoods. Having just celebrated its 15th year, YGB provides more than 2400 underserved mothers and children with micro loans and educational funds. YGB’s global campaign has reached many US cities and thirty countries worldwide with its mantra, For the cost of one yoga class, you can change a life.
