Join us under the shade of the oak allee of Oakland Plantation as we limber up and enjoy free hot yoga from our friends at ‘Lotus In the Pines’ yoga studio on Saturday, June 22. This beginner to intermediate ‘easy flow’ class is a great way to learn about the benefits of yoga in a comfortable setting.

“We are very excited to bring yoga to Cane River Creole National Historical Park as part of the Healthy Parks Healthy People movement,” said Chief of Interpretation Barbara Justice. “Parks can provide countless opportunities to impart health, healing and happiness.”

Mats will be provided or you may bring your own. Class will be held from 2-3:15 p.m. Oakland Plantation is located at 4386 Highway 494, Natchez, LA 71456.
