FREE 2023 Wellness Wednesdays, presented by Lifeway Foods

Sponsored by Lifeway Foods, Wellness Wednesdays: Sputnik Yoga will offer a variety of free yoga & fitness classes to make wellness and mindfulness more accessible to all.

Lifeway kefir is a probiotic dairy beverage. It balances a healthy gut microbiome, which may help maintain and increase serotonin levels – the key hormone that stabilizes our mood, feelings of well-being, and happiness.

By engaging in the practice of yoga, and nourishing the body with kefir, an ancient probiotic superfood, this unique collaboration is a great way to strengthen the mind-gut connection.

Classes will be on select Wednesdays between May 3 - October 25, from 5:30pm to 6:30pm on North Oculus Plaza.

Bring your own yoga mat or blanket.
