Support dana-based events with sliding scale, pay-what-you-can, and optional donations. Make your events accessible to everyone.
In conscious communities, we understand that a student just starting their journey and an established practitioner have different financial realities. Sliding scale and dana-based pricing honor this truth while keeping your offerings sustainable.
No one is turned away because of money
Those who can, contribute more to support others
Built on trust and mutual support
The yogic principle of giving without expectation
Different models for different events and communities.
Set a range (e.g., $25-$75). Attendees choose what they can pay. Great for making events accessible while covering costs.
Set a suggested price with no minimum. Trust your community to contribute fairly based on their means.
No set price. Attendees give what the experience was worth to them. Pure generosity model.
Free registration with optional donation. No barrier to entry, but those who can contribute have an easy way to do so.
