We appreciate your interest in joining Des Moines' longest-running outdoor yoga series.

Embrace this opportunity to connect with nature, meet new people, showcase your yoga expertise, and offer a free service that encourages both physical and mental wellness in the community.
Yoga in the Park sessions will be held every Saturday (June 14th - Sept 27th) from 9:00 - 10:00 AM at the SE corner of Gray's Lake Park.
*The June 28th session will be hosted at Columbus Park*
