Yoga Rocks

For the past 2 Sundays, I've gone to the coolest even called Yoga Rocks the Park. Here locally in San Diego it's held at Stage Coach Park in Carlsbad. 

It's an event that's going on in 15 different cities across the US through the beginning of September. 

It's a 70-minute, outdoor yoga class with live music. Each week it's different teachers and groovy musicians.

If you've never done a group yoga class outside, you have to try it. It's awesome…and like the name says: it rocks!

I had really never done yoga on grass and in the outdoors before and it's a totally different experience. Balancing is much more difficult, much, much, much more. And there are so many distractions because you're not in the quiet, controlled, confines of a yoga room, but that's what makes it so different and great.
