The Brendon LaCombe Priddy Yoga Scholarship
This scholarship honors the life and legacy of Brendon LaCombe Priddy, supporting military families and service-connected individuals in their pursuit of yoga. We recognize the profound impact yoga can have on physical and mental well-being, and we are committed to making it accessible to those facing financial hardship.
Brendon LaCombe Priddy was a true light in the lives of everyone he met—his presence filled every room with strength, joy, and resilience. No matter the challenges he faced, he embraced them with an open heart and an unwavering spirit. Through his actions, Brendon taught us the true meaning of acceptance, love, and living fully.
Brendon believed in inclusion, compassion, and courage. His legacy continues through BLP Serve, LLC, founded by his incredible mother, Michele Parker-Priddy. Thanks to Michele’s generosity, this fund supports Veterans Yoga Project each year, ensuring Brendon’s impact lives on.
Brendon’s family holds a proud tradition of military service—his great-grandfather served in the U.S. Army, his grandfather in the U.S. Navy, his father in the U.S. Air Force, and his brother in the U.S. Marine Corps. His deep connection to the military community makes this scholarship even more meaningful.
This memorial scholarship is a tribute to Brendon’s values of inclusion, collaboration, and service—helping military families pursue their dreams, just as Brendon would have wanted. May his memory continue to inspire us to live inclusively, love deeply, and embrace every opportunity to make a difference.
