Kasia Pelepko, a Rochester-based yoga teacher who has trained in a variety of yoga systems and movement modalities, will lead an upcoming series of sessions of Outdoor Yoga for Adults.

The movements in this series will be explored through the lens of yoga asana (standing poses, reclining poses, balance poses, and twists), as well as some simple breathing techniques, and an attitude of playfulness. The series is suitable for any adult who is able to get up and down from the ground.

Outdoor Yoga for Adults will be held every Friday in August at 6:00 PM, and the first session is scheduled for this Friday, August 5. If you would like to attend, you must register for each session individually through our Event Calendar.

Yoga blocks and straps will be provided, but please bring a yoga mat, towel, or blanket for cushioning.
