Yoga Unplugged


• Outdoor Yoga Concert!?! •
  

 Spotted @  889 Yoga (Thompson Hotel)
                  550 Wellington St W


 Who:  This summer, outdoor concerts meet yoga on the third floor deck at the beautiful Thompson Hotel! Marlison joined lululemon ahtletica and 889 Yoga for an afternoon fusion of yoga, music and fun in the sun at Yoga Unplugged Vol.II. Each week, local rockstar yogis pick the tunes for the jam practice, and all you have to do is BYOM (bring your own mat).


 What:  This past Saturday marked Yoga Unplugged's kickoff event of the summer! Sunny Smith led us through an inspiring Beatles-themed practice that had us flowin' and groovin', setting the stage for 8 more weeks of inspiring mixes! For an hour we just let go while the clouds and our worries rolled on by. To top it all off, we refueled post-practice with healthy  & delicious snacks compliments of Vega. Yum!


 Wore:  Although we got rained out last week, the weather called for sunny skies and we embraced the weather in our tanks and shorts - And of course we were sure to rock our complimentary Yoga Unplugged shades!


 When:  The Yoga Unplugged crew welcomes us to their deck every Saturday morning/afternoon. Drop by for a class - or make a summer of it - and don't forget to bring all of your friends! Marlison will be volunteering with Yoga Unplugged throughout the summer so we'd love to see your smiling faces :)


 Why Yoga Unplugged?  There's no need to drive up North to relax and enjoy the great outdoors this summer, because this peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city gets the job done! With the cold weather officially behind us, it's nice to change things up. Nothing compares to a backdrop of blue skies and white clouds, with the sun shining, the birds chirping, and the breeze blowing. This is the kind of yoga Marlene doesn't mind doing on a weekly basis (she gets distracted by the tunes) and as Alison concludes her 40 day yoga challenge, she jumps at the chance to not be cooped up inside a studio! There's something very freeing, yet grounding about an outdoor practice, and as we turn up the tunes, the sky's the limit! ..This is the yoga series of the summer you definitely don't want to miss!
