Enjoy free yoga, vegan eats, something for kids, and dancing at launch of new yoga studio Milnerton

Celebrate mindful living with the launch of Yogagarden, a new pop-up yoga studio and vegan cafe in Milnerton. Launch day celebration include free yoga classes (including acroyoga) for all ages and levels, complimentary healthy snacks, face painting for kids, dancing and music from live electronic act, Ward 10. It’s all happening on Saturday 16 November and everyone’s invited. 

Yogagarden is a Summer pop-up that will be open from 16 November until March 2020, offering regular classes for all ages and levels, from the absolute beginner to the trained athlete. Other highlights will include workshops about mindfulness, yoga and healthy cooking, as well as all-inclusive day-retreats, where you can escape the city, detox and rejuvenate. 

“Yogagarden is a place for inspiration, for rest and for connecting with others as well as yourself. We want to create a community open to all ages and backgrounds, with or without previous yoga experience. Come as you are. No one belongs here more than you,” says organiser, Kaia.

STEP INSIDE THE YOGAGARDEN
Yogagarden boasts a spacious outdoor yoga deck, next to a pool, set in a lush tropical garden. There is a Moroccan-style bedouin tent with a seating area, hammocks, sunbeds as well as picnic areas. The Boho-style decoration includes dream catchers, mandalas, hanging plants, fairy lights and fire pits. Toilets and changing rooms are available.

MEET THE TEACHERS
Kaia, founder of Yogagarden, has received training in various styles and locations; from Jivamukti in Costa Rica; Embodied Flow in Bali; Liquid Flow in France, and Yoga Therapy in Spain. Explore physically challenging yet mindful ways to move, and find relaxation through meditation.

Moritz Ulrich (guest teacher) will teach the 90-minute advanced class. He is a medical doctor and an 800-hour certified Jivamukti teacher and the owner of Peace Yoga, Berlin. At the end of his class, there will be a short kirtan (a call and response chanting of mantras which is accompanied by the harmonium instrument).
