SUNRISE YOGA by Lululemon / BREATHING THROUGH BARRIERS by Fuelled by Feeling (BYOM)
Set a great intention for the weekend ahead by joining in rooftop yoga with Dr. Genieve Burley, supported by the Lululemon Athletica’s Robson flagship store on Global Wellness Day. Attendees will flow through a yoga practice that moves outside the box, inviting movement of the whole body to ignite the soul.
Following Sunrise Yoga, Gabby Villasenor will share Fuelled by Feeling’s signature class, Breathing Through Barriers. The class is designed with the intention to bring attendees back to their strongest tool when they move: breath. As intensity revs up, guests can count on experiencing two things: how “in their body” they will become when they focus on breathing while moving, and how powerful it feels to regulate movements based on what their body is asking for. Register here.
All week long (June 3-8)
Saje Natural Wellness Lounge Pop-up – Various Dates
The Saje Natural Wellness Lounge pop-up will be in full effect during select classes throughout the week so guests can breathe deep and discover the natural healing power of plants. The Saje team will be supporting events by spreading wellness to those needing a relaxing deep breath or a healing touch.
