We are so excited to be partnering with the Guelph Humane Society(GHS) for this class and adoption event. GHS will be bringing an assortment of kittens and adult cats who are looking to find their Happy “Tails” with a loving family and together we will enjoy a relaxing Yoga class. Yes – that means if you fall in love with a feline friend, you can take them home with you! We will be raising funds to go towards the care of the animals at GHS, so we ask all participants to bring a minimum $5 donation to class, which Loyobo will happily match. The class will be open to all fitness levels and no previous yoga experience is required.
This class is part of our Friday Happy Hour series, which features a different class every week! Classes are included for members or you can drop-in for just $20+tax.
