Yoga in Schenley

For the third year in a row, yoga lovers can stretch and take classes in sunny Schenley Plaza… For the third year in a row, yoga lovers can stretch and take classes in sunny Schenley Plaza for no cost at all.

The plaza will host free yoga classes, presented by Folding Space Yoga, on Mondays at noon and Saturdays at 10 a.m. from June 5 until Aug. 30.

Folding Space Yoga is an organization that provides the Pittsburgh area with affordable yoga classes where attendees can pay what they can.

Laura Cook, Pittsburgh Parks Conservation marketing and communications director, said the program has been very successful during the past three years.

“In past years, we’ve had over 100 people at certain sessions,” she said.

Though the program hasn’t seen those sorts of numbers yet this year, Cook said she is confident it will grow as the summer continues.

“I think it takes a couple minutes for people to catch on, since we just started,” Cook said.

The classes are great for all skill levels, so attendees can just bring a mat and a water bottle and find some inner peace in the inner city.
