Get ready to be guided through a series of breath work practices, meditation techniques and yoga poses that you can take off the mat and use in everyday life.

Enjoy the fresh air as you learn new yoga poses, stretch your body and mind, and take a moment to focus on yourself. All levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced participants.
