Join us for a peaceful and rejuvenating yoga and meditation class amidst the beautiful surroundings of Hoyt Arboretum.
This outdoor class is a partnership between prAna Portland and Hoyt Arboretum, led by Tessa Tovar. Tessa will guide participants through a series of gentle Yin Yoga postures that will help release tension and increase flexibility in the body.

Tessa will also guide participants through meditation to connect with the breath and experience a deep sense of relaxation.
