Riverside Cemetery Yoga
SAT SEP 19, 5 - 6 PM EDT (SAT SEP 19, 5 - 6 PM EDT)

Join us for a soul-stirring yoga experience at Riverside Cemetery in Cleveland, Ohio- established in 1876 and recognized on the National Registrar of Historic places.

Among weathered stones, open skies, and quiet pathways, you'll be invited to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with what truly matters in this humbling all levels vinyasa flow. This is more than movement-it's a return to presence. In a space where time feels suspended, each breath becomes more intentional, each posture more meaningful. The stillness of the cemetery offers a rare kind of peace-serene, reflective, and deeply calming-creating the perfect environment to turn inward and let the outside world slip away for one hour.

Expect a practice that is gentle yet powerful, grounding yet expansive with a reminder of both the fragility and beauty of life.

Here's an excerpt of a writing done by a past student about our class. Thank you Rashida Hagakore for your words,

"Each pose a whisper

but no gentle surrender-

we twist, hold, strain

the body to fold into itself,

bones and breath finding their

limits, their potential

as Beethoven gently sweeps through

air, piano notes draping over gravestones,

we press deeper,

to activate, to achieve, to release

in a place where time stands still

the sun relentless on our faces,

bright against the dark heart of things,

and we breathe through it,

through every pull and reach,

wrestling for stillness within

Each pose a conversation with gravity,

our bodies stretching between two worlds,

communing with the roots of the trees

and gazing into the shadows of the headstones

and, at last, we reach corpse pose

spines sinking into ancient ground,

the weight of effort dissolving,

as life and death brush shoulders

in the warmth of day that feels timeless."
