SUPPORT THIS YEAR’S TAHI CHARRITY CHALLENGE!

It is estimated that every year, refugees cover over 1 billion miles to reach safety - whether that be from South Sudan to Kenya, from Afghanistan to Germany, from Haiti to the USA, or from Ukraine to Switzerland. They take on treacherous journeys to escape war, persecution or poverty, all to find safety in unknown countries and cultures.

To support the integration of refugees and asylum seekers in Basel, we have been collaborating with the Swiss NGO Sportegration since 2024 by offering open and free Yoga classes at Tahi.

On 21st of June, in order to commemorate World Refugee Day and to raise awareness, we will attempt to accumulate just 0.0001% of the distance refugees travel each year: So we will attempt to cover 1'600km of running and biking (indoor machines & outdoor), and skiing or rowing (on our machines), all in just 4 hours, as a collective - to stand with refugees across the world and raise funds for Sportegration.

Hence, 100% of the sign up fees will go to Sportegration, helping them to continuously provide various sports activities open to refugees, asylum seekers and the host community, across Switzerland.

So get your friends and family, sign up and join the challenge - all for a good cause!
