In Seattle, July 4th signifies the coming (finally!) of warmer, sunnier days.  Yoga is a wonderful accompaniment to running, biking and hiking, so before you hit the trails, be sure to check our schedules and find time to come to class.  Looking for something fun for your kids to do this summer? We're offering a Yoga for Kids workshop on Saturday, August 9th.  Enjoy the sunshine!
