Take a yoga class for FREE in (and around) Boulder today! To celebrate International Day of Yoga, I have put together a list of free (and donation-based) classes this week to get you started (or re-started!) on your yoga practice. Yoga transforms both body and mind and has been so effective for so many that this physical, mental and spiritual practice is over 5,000 years old. On December 11 in 2014, the United Nations General Assembly declared June 21st as the International Day of Yoga.
Yogi and mystic, Sadhguru notes the importance of June 21 in the yogic tradition: “On the day of the summer solstice, Adiyogi [the first yogi] turned south and first set his eyes on the Saptarishis or Seven Sages, who were his first disciples to carry the science of yoga to many parts of the world. It is wonderful that June 21 marks this momentous event in the history of humanity.”
