There are many names for this date:

June 21st

International Day of Yoga

The Summer Solstice

The day with the most sunlight  

​

This is a day in which we celebrate by saluting the sun, for life could not exist without it.  108 Sun Salutations, or the Yoga Mala, is like running a marathon.  It is long, it is sweaty, and it is a challenge mentally and physically.  You will be sore, but you will get way more from the entire day than just getting through the practice. 

 

Sun salutations consist of a sequence of yoga poses known in Sanskrit as “Surya Namaskar”.  They are practiced to bring in the new day and give honor to the sun.  The poses are generally practiced using your breath to lead your movement in a continuous flow.  Due to this, Sun Salutations can be physically challenging and a definite cardio workout. 

​

So why us?  There are many places you can be today.  But there is no better place that will give you the warmth, truth, and authenticity you seek.  There is no better place that will have your abilities and limitations in mind while we lead your practice.  There is no better place that will allow you to be you, authentically and true. 

 

We ask that you come with the goal of 108 Salutations, but we ask you to also give yourself permission to be true.  If you complete 15 of them, what an accomplishment!  You are doing yoga just by listening to your body and allowing yourself to be.  There is no judgement here and all yogis of all abilities are welcome at all times!  Allow yourself to be introduced to your truth on this day with us, experiencing all the emotions...acknowledging them...and releasing them.  We will guide you through.

​

At the end of your incredible workout and gift to the sun, we will begin the day of festivities!  From our market of shops to food and health expos, you won't be disappointed!  Come join us on this wonderful day of fun for the whole family!
