Breathe fresh air, explore new terrain and stretch out as we take our yoga practice into the woods, up and down rolling hills, weaving deep, relaxing poses throughout the hike/journey. Each pose along the way is designed to build strength, balance and flexibility while helping you connect with the natural surroundings. The hike and yoga practice is about one hour long. All levels welcome (moderate inclines on the trail).
Wear comfortable layers and walking shoes; bring a yoga mat and water. In inclement weather, classes will be extended out.
