Yoga teachers do their best to create a pleasant mood and sometimes-aromatic yoga class experience. At Jake’s Branch Park Observation Deck the great outdoors is the real thing.  

The natural surroundings linking yoga with its natural source.  
 

Yoga outside on the deck can intensify the yoga experience in many ways, since nature inspires all the things you try to get with yoga—focusing on awareness, deep breathing and even practicing stillness. You first, have to get thinking more in terms of embracing rather than attacking the elements. It can help to remind us that a breeze can deepen your breathing, the warm sun can deepen poses by making muscles more pliable, and a lightning bug can invite you to focus on something small.

 

One of the aspects of yoga is about being in the moment and at one with nature or the universe. Outdoors offers another level to focus on smell and nature, such as the pine and grass. You start to smell the outdoors, it's as if nature wants us to be present and breathe deeply.

 

The deck is hardwood.   Please bring your mat and water for hydrating.
