Ease into your Sunday with mindful movement, gentle stretching, and time to breathe. Led by a rotating lineup of yoga teachers, each bringing their own style and warmth, this welcoming practice invites you to move at your own pace. Stay afterward for coffee, conversation, and community—we’d love to spend part of our Sunday with you.
Why We Bring Yoga to Behavioral Fitness
At Behavioral Fitness, movement has always been an essential part of wellbeing — and yoga has been at the heart of that vision since the very beginning. We’ve been supporting free community yoga since 2019, beginning in Arbolado Park, and now, with the support of the generous donors of PEACE (Providing Easier Access to Care Everywhere) — a registered 501(c)(3)nonprofit — we’re able to bring these offerings into our beautiful studio space.
We have long believed in the transformative power of yoga. The research is compelling, and its value is undeniable. Yoga supports physical strength and flexibility, but just as importantly, it helps calm the nervous system, increase awareness, and cultivate balance from within.
Access matters. Many people have never had a truly safe, welcoming place to try yoga — to learn not only the movements, but also the deeper principles of mindfulness, self-compassion, and connection that make yoga such a powerful practice.
Our goal at Behavioral Fitness is to change that. By offering yoga and other wellness experiences at below-market rates, made possible through PEACE’s generous donors, we’re creating opportunities for people to explore movement, healing, and community in ways that are both accessible and meaningful.
How you can help:
• Show up — for yourself and your community.
• Share our offerings with others so more people benefit- help spread the word - it’s the greatest gift!
• Support PEACE and Behavioral Fitness so we can continue to grow and reach more people.
Together, we’re building something bright, local, and deeply needed — a community of care where everyone belongs.
Let’s build wellness like a local.

Lesher Center for the Arts

The Diablo Symphony opens its 2026–2027 season, “Breathe,” on Sunday, October 25, at 2:00 p.m. at the Lesher Center for the Arts. Celebrating the resilience of the human spirit, the program includes Jean Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2 and Sergei Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 1 with award-winning pianist Leyla Kabuli (also a PhD candidate in electrical engineering and computer sciences at UC Berkeley). In contrast, Carlos Simon’s meditative piece “Breathe” (written, in the composer's words, to encourage listeners “to simply reflect and breathe”) opens the concert. 
It's not too late to save with a five-concert subscription! Find season details and a link to the Lesher Center’s subscription page by visiting the DSO’s website at www.diablosymphony.org. Or go to the DSO's Northern Spirits page for concert and single ticket information.
