Creating More Resilient First Responders

WHO WE ARE

The 1501 Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to promoting the resiliency and growth of our first responders. We bring wellness, injury prevention, flexibility, and stress management tools directly to the fire station. We aim to help them live long and fulfilled lives when in service and long after.

HOW WE DO IT

We proudly offer transformative Yoga classes on a weekly basis in collaboration with our local fire department. Our dedicated instructors bring their expertise directly to the fire station, crafting personalized 75-minute sessions tailored to the unique needs of our partner agencies. Our approach is rooted in evidence-based methodologies, particularly drawing from the principles of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR).

Excitingly, we're extending our commitment to well-being to Northern Arizona, where we're providing complimentary Yoga classes to local firefighters through partnerships with esteemed Yoga studios. This expansion reflects our deep-seated aspiration to make a positive impact on the lives of those who tirelessly serve our communities.
