Tonight's Guerilla Yoga - June 26

Unfortunately, when I planned this week's yoga class the chance of rain was only 30%.  The thunderstorms are forecast into the evening as well as a flash flood warning.  I am cancelling tonight's Guerilla Yoga by Des Moines City Hall.  In addition, I will not be teaching a Guerilla Yoga class next week (July 3) due to the holiday.

I would be happy to see you this Sunday, June 29 for one or a few workshops (meditation, holistic yoga flow, sparking your home practice, yoga hike and restorative yoga).  Class descriptions and registration information are on my Illuminate the Day website.  

There are also tips and tricks to bring the practice home in my latest newsletter.

Cheers to enjoying the roll of thunder against the pitter patter of rain.

Des Moines City Hall - June 26

The Des Moines River is high and the current strong creating a view and soundtrack not found in the yoga studio.  A twist won't steal the view but rather turn your attention to the beautiful architecture of City Hall.  Join me for Guerilla Yoga at 5:30pm Thursday, June 26 on the West side of Des Moines City Hall (400 Robert D. Ray Dr Des Moines, IA 50309)

On street metered parking found on the Grand Avenue and East Locust Street bridges highlighted in yellow below.  Look for the metal art sculpture pictured below on the right.  I'll have my cell (515-979-6474) if you have questions.

Principal Park Fountain - June 12

The sounds of summer will fill the air as we gather at the Principal Park tiered fountain.  With the confluence of the Des Moines and Raccoon Rivers in sight, this Guerilla Yoga class will inspire a go with the flow attitude.

Join me at the fountain this Thursday, June 12 at 5:30pm outside on the Southeast corner of the ball park.  Below, I've noted parking in yellow and the trail in red to the fountain in blue.  You may park in the Principal Park (1 Line Drive Des Moines 50309) parking lots or outside of Mullet's.  You cannot see the practice spot from the road.    

We will be practicing on concrete.  As always bring your yoga gear and $5.  You can give me a call or text (515-979-6474) if you have any questions or need assistance locating us.

This #GuerillaYogaDM view is uniquely peaceful.  Combined with our yoga practice it inspires and helps to open our eyes and heart.  The pictures don't begin to give it justice.  Let me share it with you in person this Thursday, June 5.
