You know the annual free day of yoga (the one where I took my mom to Bikram and she hasn’t stopped going since and it’s been like 5 years?). Well the city of Austin is having “Another Free Day of Yoga” this Saturday!
“Another Free Day of Yoga is an opportunity for people who are new to yoga to try a classand for existing students to try a different style of yoga,” explains Christina Simon, Director of Center Operations at Yoga Yoga. “Every year on Labor Day, Yoga Yoga participates in theannual Free Day of Yoga citywide-event, and we see over 1,000 people in our studios. With interest in yoga on the rise, we saw the need to make this a semiannual occasion, giving more people access to the benefits of yoga.”
At five Yoga Yoga locations across the city, 56 free yoga classes will be taught, from beginner-friendly yoga classes to prenatal yoga classes to a yoga bootcamp class at 7:30am! Class schedule and Yoga Yoga location information at yogayoga.com/another-free-day-yoga.
Of course, there are tons of other studios participating too. Check out freedayofyoga.com or contact info@freedayofyoga.com.
According to the 2008 Yoga in America study, 6.9 percent or 15.8 million U.S. adults practice yoga. That’s a lot, but we need more, so get thee to a studio stat!
