Summer Yoga at LeMay @ The Lawn at LeMay America's Car Museum
Tickets
Jun 1 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Self-care for Collective Care. Come together in community in the heart of our city for outdoor yoga. Yoga is an ancient holistic practice developed in S Asia but often seen as a luxury, with costs and accessibility only serving a select few. But when we practice yoga we have the opportunity to form deep and loving connections with other students, teachers and anyone else we meet on our journey — this practice can be a positive force in our personal lives. Now imagine the impact when we expand that force to our community.

Enjoy a mellow flow that combines purposeful movement and breath to cultivate mindfulness, a blend of beginner and intermediate asana (postures), and dynamic and static stretches to relieve tension in your body and mind so you feel good at the end of your day.

Summer Yoga classes are for all levels of experience. No yoga mat or yoga clothes required. Dress comfortably and bring a towel if you don’t have a yoga mat or don’t want to get yours dirty.
