Our Wishlist.

Daruma is still a new studio, and is powered by a very small team. As we get up and running, support from the studio community is so welcome.

If you would like to make a donation to buy something specific – or have any pre-loved items that may be of use to us – our studio wishlist is below, but all donations are welcome.

Donate via Paypal

Use the friends and family option and write ‘donation’ in the notes, or contact us if you want to use a different method.

Please also let us know in the notes if you would/would not like your name to be mentioned publicly to say thank you.

Pre-loved Items

If you have pre-loved items in good condition you would like to donate to the studio, please email hello [at] daruma [.] berlin, with any information you can share about the item, or potential drop-off to the studio.

We are seeking:

Soft items:

  • Blankets

  • Rugs or carpets to make sitting on the floor more cosy

  • Floor cushions

Studio space:

  • A small or medium-size gong

Furniture

  • Sofas or comfy chairs

  • A table and/or folding table

  • Chairs (suitable for a desk or dining table)

New Items

If you are able to donate to help us purchase something for the space, we are currently seeking:

  • Meditation cushions: We want to help our guests to be comfy sitting on the floor during workshops, particularly those who struggle with their knees and hips. At wholesale cost these are 14.20€ each – our eventual goal is to purchase 20 (for a total of 284€). (We reached our goal, thank you!)

  • Meditation Mats: We want to help our guests to be comfy sitting on the floor during workshops, particularly those who struggle with their knees and hips. At wholesale cost these are 24.90€ each. Our eventual goal is to purchase 20 (for a total of 498€).

  • OR Thicker Tying Mats: These are similar to meditation mats, but much larger (200x100cm). They are 110€ each, and we’d like to get 10-12 of them from 1100€-1320€

  • Strong, load rated, synthetic rope – we would like to replace all of the ropes on our suspension points and hashira. Our goal for this is 300€. (We reached our goal, thank you!)

  • Blankets: We all need to be kept warm and cosy after rope – help us get some aftercare blankets for the studio for around 15€ each (our eventual goal is to purchase 20!)
