Join Yoga Sanctuary, a nonprofit studio on the east side of Lake Harriet, for a meditative guided yoga practice on the lawn by the new Welcome Center at Lakewood.
All people—brand new and experienced yoga practitioners—will enjoy this energy balancing practice promoting strength, flexibility, balance and clarity in this beautiful and inspiring venue. We will use mindful movement and guided breathing techniques to help settle our thoughts, flowing and holding postures to support the physical body, and rest to connect with the soul. Modifications to ease or intensify poses will be sprinkled throughout the class.
These drop-in yoga sessions happen every Saturday throughout the summer, and you do not need to register or get a ticket.
