For Providers
Fill your empty daytime hours with paying senior participants.
We handle the paperwork. You just teach.
The Opportunity
Government and foundation funding exists for evidence-based senior wellness programs — falls prevention, strength and balance, mind-body wellness. But most studios can't access it because they lack the program structure, instructor certification, and outcomes tracking that funders require.
Grace Blanket is the bridge. We bring the grants, train your instructors, recruit participants, and handle all compliance. You provide the space and the teaching. Together, we fill your off-peak hours while making a real difference for older adults in your community.
