Here is the post made on the grinnell yoga blog concerning yoga in the park:
Hey Grinnell yogis! Summer is fast approaching, and with it: Yoga in the Park! Thanks to the Grinnell Parks and Recreation Department and your local yoga instructors, you will have the opportunity to take a free yoga class every Saturday morning (for 8 weeks) by the gazebo in Central Park! (If it's sprinkling, we'll just hop up into the gazebo.) Our first class will be June 9, same weekend as the Grinnell Games! It promises to be a fun day (and weekend) in Grinnell!!
What: Grinnell Yoga in the Park
When: Saturdays, 9 - 10am June 9 - July 28
Where: Gazebo, Central Park
How much: FREE
What do I need to bring: Just yourself in comfortable clothes! If you have a yoga mat you can bring it, but we will strive to make classes accessible without mats. You will also need to sign a Parks & Rec waiver the first time you attend.

Yoga in the park is a community health initiative that will hopefully generate new interest in yoga. This is a great opportunity for our regular yoga participants to come try a new perspective on yoga in a beautiful outdoor space. Our instructors Jen and Kim will be in the rotation as well as instructors from other Grinnell venues. Jen Mavin, one of our former instructors is going to come back to town to teach one weekend. Come try it out! Sessions will count for attendance pays.

Class today
Though they are small in numbers, my (Jen's) stalwart few that come to Powerflow Yoga are very faithful, even adjusting their schedule so they miss as little as possible. There's nothing wrong with small classes. It's nice sometimes to have an intimate setting. But it's better to have a strong base of folks you can count on for attendance.
Low and behold, tonight not one but two new people came to class. One was a fairly new member that has worked her way up to a higher fitness level. She branched out of her comfort zone and tried something new. I think the experience paid off and she was able to find another class she can come to when her schedule suits. The other was a guest of a member. I am so grateful to you all who invite people in. It is a great way to spend time with friends doing a new activity. I remember the team spirit that I felt with the girls on my athletic teams growing up and I find that sometimes there is that same sense in our classes as adults.
Thank you so much for bringing in new people and for trying to new things. You didn't even know it but you made my night!
