Do you love yoga? Do you love spending summer evenings in the park? Do you love free activities? If you answered yes to any one of those questions, you should check out Yerbana Yoga in the Park. Every Thursday at 6:00 p.m. from May 22 through September 25, you can join other Seattleites in a free one-hour yoga class at either Gas Works Park or Woodland Park. This year has some exciting additions, including the second location.
Read on for all the information you need to participate in Yoga in the Park!
Yerbana Yoga in the Park is starting its fifth year this May. This summer it’s expanding to 20 sessions and they expect up to 1,5000 participants for each session! Every Thursday a different Seattle yoga instructor will lead the crowd in an hour-long flow. The event is rain or shine, with exceptions for severe weather.
There will be more than yoga. You’ll also get to enjoy live DJs before and after class, keynote speakers, a local vendor village that includes food vendors, and giveaways.
What are the locations?
Typically Yerbana Yoga in the Park is held at Gas Works Park but you’ll also find it at Woodland Park on several Thursdays this summer. The “Flow in the Forest” version will be at the Woodland Park Picnic Shelter 6 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. on July 3, July 24, August 7, and August 28. These four “mini wellness festivals” will have even more activities such as sound baths, astrology readings, and a mobile sauna and cold plunge. See a map of the location here.
What ages and experience levels can attend?
If you’re not experienced in yoga but still want to try it out, this is the perfect opportunity. This is Seattle’s largest weekly yoga gathering and every participant has their own level of experience. Everyone is welcome: this is family-friendly and beginner-friendly.
What should I bring?
Bring your own yoga mat, as well as plenty of water and anything else you typically like to have on-hand for a yoga session.
Where to park?
There is an on-site parking lot available at both parks, as well as street parking.
How do I sign up?
Yoga in the Park is a free event with a requested donation of $5 or more. You don’t have to sign up beforehand but if you RSVP here ahead of time you’ll be entered for giveaways!
