According to a March article in The Huffington Post, Alaska is the only state with more yoga studios per capita than Colorado. With so many options available in Denver alone, how does a Mile High yogi—especially one of countless recent newcomers—decide where to unroll his or her mat? Enter: Friday Night Yoga Club. “We’ve gone from about 10 dates last season to 20 this year,” says FNYC founder Erik Vienneau. “Every night has a different instructor and musician and meets at a unique studio. So in one season you can see most of Denver’s favorite instructors, musicians/DJs and venues.”
Even if you’re pleased as punch with your current “om base,” there’s a plethora of other reasons to get down dog at Friday Night Yoga Club. “Whether you make it a night out with your friends, date night or feel like rolling solo, FNYC, Yoga Rocks the Park’s indoor sister event, is a perfect opportunity to flow and mingle with like-minded folks to the soundtrack of live music. Come for the yoga and stick around for the after-party, presented by Whole Foods Denver.”
The 2015-2016 season of Friday Night Yoga Club gets its asana in gear October 16 at Samadhi. Feast your third eye on the full schedule–powered by Aveda Park Meadows–below.
