Yoga Fridays at Ravenna Third Place Books

Posted on June 28, 2011 | 1 Comment

Looking for a fun way to practice yoga?  Why not visit the book store!  Every Friday morning, Ravenna Third Place Books is offering yoga on their patio from 8am – 9am (weather permitting).

The sessions are led by Annie Price, a former bookseller who teaches yoga all over Seattle.  Bring your own mat, although there will be several loaner mats available if you forget. 

Annie asks that participants make a donation, rather than charging for the class.  The suggested donation is $5 to $10.   Annie teaches a variety of classes in other locations, and you can view her group class schedule here.
