Week 22: Yoga on the Green and Dreamers on the Stage

Last week's Pilates class at Washington Park inspired me to check out some of the other workouts offered in the park, so this week I wandered over for The Yoga Bar's Vinyasa class, held on the oval every Tuesday throughout the summer.

The class is cleverly designed for everyone from beginner to expert; three yogis from The Yoga Bar demonstrate each pose/movement from the park's stage - one showing the beginner pose, another the intermediate level and a third doing the advanced level pose. Instructors walk around and guide participants while offering positive thoughts and gentle pointers.

It is absolutely wonderful! I really enjoyed the class and felt both relaxed and rejuvenated afterward. I definitely plan to go back for more.

Another cool thing: The Yoga Bar gave out white wristbands to the first 500 participants, which offer discounted deals at area businesses.

It's Cool To Be Kind!

Also this week I ventured over to MOTR and caught another fantastic (and FREE!) show - this time it was a triple bill: AudioDamn!, The Young Wild and Dreamers headlining. I was most excited to see AudioDamn! because I had missed them earlier in the year at Headliners in Louisville and I lovelovelove their single "Lights Out." I was also stoked to finally see Dreamers, who have played MOTR before and are poised for the big time.

Dreamers - they're dreamy!

All three bands put on an excellent show and my only complaint is that it had to end. I've included videos by AudioDamn! and Dreamers to keep the magic going.

Workout on the Green happens every Tuesday and Wednesday from 6-9 p.m. Choose from Pilates, Yoga, Kickboxing, Bootcamp and Dance Fitness. All classes are free.
