New black-owned studio, Eb & Flow, featured for National Yoga Month

September is National Yoga Month, and Chicago Bucktown Lululemon is sponsoring free classes at its featured Studio of the Month, Eb & flow Yoga Studio in the Wicker Park/Bucktown neighborhood.

The benefits of a regular yoga practice are plentiful and well-documented within the healthcare community. Yoga builds strength and flexibility, reduces tension and stress, aids in weight loss, and increases mobility in mature adults. The Eb in Eb & flow Yoga Studio, Eboni Howard and her mother Peggy Moore saw first-hand the benefits of yoga practice for their personal health and well-being, and later immersed themselves at a Baron Baptiste teacher training retreat in Arizona. The Baptiste Yoga™ vinyasa practice takes place in a heated room and emphasizes linking breath with movement. It is unique in its approach that allows practitioners to modify the postures in order to create a pose that works specifically for them.

Eboni and Peggy so benefited from the retreat that they embarked on a new mission to share their experience and enthusiasm with others. Six months ago they opened Eb & flow Yoga Studio. One of only a handful of black-owned yoga studios in the nation, Eb & flow Yoga Studio offers Baptiste Yoga as well as a variety of other heated and non-heated vinyasa and gentle yoga styles that are intended to meet the needs of both beginning and advancing students.

“We believe that everybody can practice yoga and benefit”, says Eb.  “It’s REAL. It’s POWERFUL. It’s POSSIBLE!”

Grab a towel and a bottle of water, and come practice with us for a spell. Chicago Bucktown Lululemon is sponsoring free classes at Eb & flow Yoga Studio every Sunday in September at 10 AM, beginning September 8th. All levels welcomed—no experience necessary.
