Yoga for All at River Days

Join us for a free yoga practice at River Days to get your body moving mindfully, and help you feel better in mind, body, and spirit, led by Sarah Nelson with Julie Pierce assisting with the chair-supported options!
Yoga is for EVERY body and we always aim to create movement practices that are as accessible and inclusive of as many folks as possible, so ALL are welcome to join us for this yoga class at the Bob Johns Stage - all people, all ages, all bodies, all abilities. Some postures and movements may feel familiar if you've practiced yoga before, and you'll also move in some out-of-the-box ways too - making this a fun and embodied exploratory experience! No prior yoga experience or flexibility are required!
Movement options will be given to include varying bodies' needs, including chair-supported options and accommodation for limited mobility; sign language interpretation will also be provided by VOICE. Although not specifically kids yoga, kiddos are welcome to join with a parent/guardian and will receive a free kids yoga book (while supplies last).
This free yoga class is hosted by the Cultural Awareness Coalition (an initiative of the Midland Area Community Foundation). The Cultural Awareness Coalition brings performances to River Days Festival to support the Coalition’s vision of Midland being an inclusive community.

Registration is not required - just show up and get your body moving mindfully! Please bring a yoga mat if you have one, and any other yoga props you find helpful; a limited number of mats will be available to borrow, as well as chairs for those who benefit from extra support. There will be limited shade; sunglasses, sunscreen, and water are also encouraged.
