Free Yoga Under The Trees at Neill-Cochran House Museum

Posted on April 22, 2022 by Clarett C.

FREE YOGA UNDER THE TREES AT NEILL- COCHRAN HOUSE MUSEUM

 

The Neill-Cochran House Museum is excited to present our new Yoga on the Lawn. Every Friday we invite you to come enjoy a relaxing morning on our shaded and welcoming grounds.

Hold yourself with grace. Allow for the journey. Discover what serves you best. We all bring a different story to the mat, and know that you are always your clearest teacher. The yoga practice space is there for you to make it yours with support along the way. You are welcome to totally chill and take a deeply peaceful path during class, and if you’re interested in coming along I’ll facilitate a dynamic place where peace and power meet. I delight in the way we somewhat lose ourselves as well as find ourselves within the practice. Come flow and grow in this community class at Neill-Cochran House Museum! We’ll meet on the lawn in the dense shade of amazing trees. See you there!

This event will take place on our front lawn (weather permitting) allowing all guests to breathe in the relaxing morning air. Even though the event will take place outdoors, we do request for the safety of all guests, instructors, and staff that everyone wears a mask at all times on our site, unless fully vaccinated.

Keeping the Pease Yoga at Pease Park

Posted on March 9, 2022 by Clarett C.

Join our free yoga in the park, Keeping the Pease, led by Vivian Lee!

About the Gentle Flow + Breathwork class (60-75 minutes): We’ll start out by moving intentionally and slowly to build our mind-body connection and awareness. Then, we’ll move into a traditional breathwork practice (lying down) to cultivate inner peace and clarity. While this practice is suitable for all levels, the breathwork practice should be done with less intensity if you’re pregnant or experiencing any heart trouble (more guidance provided during class).

About Vivian: A certified yoga and breathwork teacher, Vivian loves sharing these practices with others for both physical and spiritual benefits. Vivian is a native Austinite who’s recently returned home and can be found working with nonprofits and social enterprises, exploring our trails, stand-up paddling and eating all the breakfast tacos.

Bendy on a Budget: Free or Donation-based Yoga in Austin for Every Day of the Week

Posted on March 11, 2019 by Katrina Cervantes

Free Yoga in Austin

Austin is among the top cities in the country for yoga. The offerings continue to grow alongside other booming industries here, and rightfully so. The harder we work, the more we deserve opportunities to relax, breathe, and let go. Thankfully, many establishments are offering wallet-friendly yoga class options.

It’s not that I don’t think a good class or workshop isn’t worth upwards of $20. But it can be good to mix it up with free events here and there. I’ve compiled a list of several unique yoga offerings in Austin: from big studios, to coffeeshop yoga, to pop-up outdoor classes. Here’s where to find free yoga in Austin–or at least donation-based–on every day of the week. [Read more…]

Stretch Creates Accessible Approach to Yoga, Headphones Included

Posted on March 23, 2018 by Jonas White

For years, I knew yoga could improve the quality of my life. Yet, for an activity built on love and inclusivity, jumping into this unfamiliar practice felt challenging. I didn’t relate to the bohemian feel of some local studios, and the terminology used in class was intimidating and hard to follow. I felt like an outsider. Because of this, I avoided all things yoga.

And then I found Stretch. This Austin yoga studio was different. It was accessible and approachable by design, owner and instructor Kaysha Patel told me.

This is how a guy who’d never “namaste-d” or “downward dogged” before began his modest yoga practice…and can now (almost) touch his toes.

Off of South Congress stands the massive, angular structure of Crux Climbing Center, the newest bouldering and rope gym to inspire Austin residents to place hand on rock. The 22,000 square foot facility opened on May 7, 2016 with a huge competition, Setter Showdown, that drew hundreds of climbers from around the United States.

Local climbers Matt Twyman and Kevin Goradia partnered with East Austin architecture firm Derrington Building Studio to create a space that is incredibly unique to athletes, yogis and those searching for a gym with a comfortable but modern aesthetic.

“Ultimately, our vision is to make it a home. Climbing is very community-centric, and people just want to have a place to go gather and hang out. Climbing is almost like a second part of it. You spend more time hanging out with friends. We wanted a place where people enjoy being that is comfy and clean as they climb, read, do yoga and whatever else,” shared Twyman.

Austin Bouldering Project Offers Community-Oriented Indoor Fitness

Posted on February 25, 2016 by Talena Ramnath

Austin Bouldering Project

Austin Bouldering Project’s main room hosts dozens of problems that change weekly

Community is a gathering of people uniting around a shared passion, within their own space. Zach Olschwanger, founder and head manager of Austin Bouldering Project, operates with the idea of community at the forefront of his gym’s growth strategy. “People have been so willing and anxious to help out in any way. Our approach is to do the best that we can to make it the best it can be, so that other people can enjoy it and tell other people about it. This is kind of the dream; it’s the culture of [bouldering],” he said.

Austin Bouldering Project, a 50,000 square-foot bouldering facility, opened its doors on Nov. 28, 2015, as hordes of Austin rock climbers rushed to finish their Thanksgiving feast to head to the new prime spot for indoor bouldering in the United States. After years of planning, city ordinance mishaps, and miserable rain due to El Niño that continually halted production, the gym was finally able to welcome the anxious public who had been continually checking updates for over a year, so they could get their hands chalked up.
