Take your yoga routine outside with Schaumburg Park District

Spend a lovely September evening at a free yoga class in one of Schaumburg Park District's idyllic park settings.

Open to participants 14 and older, Yoga in the Park is set for 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 17, at the Community Recreation Center, 505 N. Springinsguth Road.

"We thought this would be a fun opportunity for participants who have taken yoga with us before, as well as those new to yoga, to try a class outdoors," said Charissa Tischhauser, fitness supervisor.

"It offers a change in scenery from the traditional fitness studio while getting participants out into the fresh air."

Indoors or out, yoga offers numerous benefits, Tischhauser said.

"Practicing yoga increases flexibility, strength and muscle tone," she said.

Registration is required. Participants are encouraged to bring their own mats and water bottles.
