Yoga Returns to Olin Pavilion in the Summer of 2023

Friends of the free asanas - mark your calendars for six sessions of yoga in the Olin Park pavilion.  Starting June 12th, every Monday eve at 6 PM, Sam Kellogg will again provide instruction and guidance in her Alignment Yoga method. Her classes are open to all levels of experience, and will focus on the yoga fundamentals of breathing and asana postures. Bring a mat if you have one, but mats and props will be available. So come together with mindful others in the serenity of the historic Olin Park pavilion to nurture your yoga practice and enjoy the city skyline view. 

Most recent FOOT meeting was Thursday, March 23, 2023 

Eight of us gathered in person at The Borough's Brew Company on Thursday, March 23 at 6:30 PM for a long overdue FOOT meeting. Two key topic of discussion were:

1)  Planning for the 2023 'season' at the Olin Park pavilion. Concert, dance and yoga series were
      proposed, and dates will be established soon. 

2)  Discussion of likes, dislikes and concerns regarding the three final designs for the Lake Monona
      Waterfront Design Challenge.  Those comments have been summarized and submitted to the city's
      Ad Hoc Committee overseeing the Design Challenge.

Folks on our email list automatically receive meeting FOOT-Notes, and FOOT-Notes are also archived here on our website.
