These special Yoga sessions will focus on gently and lovingly balancing our minds, bodies, & breath. We will explore gentle movement through physical poses, slow flow Vinyasa, stretches, breathing exercises, active rest and guided meditations. This class intends to be an accessible, inclusive, and welcoming space for all bodies and all people wanting to explore different parts of a yoga practice while embracing our connection with the natural world. All of these sessions are weather permitting & held outside in the park so please dress in a way that is comfortable for you and appropriate for the weather of the day.
You are welcome to bring a mat and/or any props (examples- beach towels, books, blocks, blankets, extra layers of clothing, etc.) that best support you.
These sessions are for all people 16 and older. See you in the park!

#GivingTuesday2025 is just around the corner, and we get it โ€“ there are so many wonderful local nonprofits seeking support this time of year!

Why include Roger Williams Park Conservancy in your giving plan? 

Behind the more than 50 free and low-cost programs hosted every year, the restoration of beloved historic structures still playing a role in the community today, and the expansive green spaces and waterways sustaining humans and wildlife alike, there are crucial partnerships and much hard work that goes into stewarding Roger Williams Park.

As Board Member Chris Lanen shares โ€“ and so many families can relate to! โ€“ "the Park provides [a] retreat into nature. Individually, it gives me a place to exercise and decompress. As a parent, it gives my child a magical place to play, explore, and learn throughout the year.โ€

Find the link to donate in our bio, with options for one-time or recurring gifts!
To all those celebrating, happy Thanksgiving from RWPC! Donโ€™t forget: our trails and paths are always available for a rejuvenating post-feast walk! ๐Ÿ‚

We would love to hear what youโ€™re thankful for about Roger Williams Park โ€“ is it a favorite piece of architecture or a serene place to retreat into nature? A favorite event or family outing thatโ€™s become a tradition? Let us know!
