ELKIN \u2014 Yoga on Main in Elkin will host \u201cStretch it Out Saturday\u201d on June 25 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. in celebration of International Yoga Day. A portion of Main Street outside the Yoga on Main studio, located at 122 E. Main St., will be blocked off for this mini-festival\/open house event which will feature free yoga classes, food vendors and more.<\/p>\n
Yoga on Main typically hosts an open house each year on New Year\u2019s Day but was not able to last year due to the pandemic. Studio owner and yoga teacher Kelly Dougherty said this outdoor and expanded open house event is geared to bring in more community participation and introduce newcomers to the practice of yoga.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur goal is to have people that have never tried yoga come see what it\u2019s all about,\u201d said Dougherty.<\/p>\n
There will be kids classes, family yoga sessions, family Zumba, as well as yin yoga, flow yoga, core barre and more.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe cool thing about this is we are going to be doing a little sampling of all of our classes and all the different types of yoga that we offer, so it\u2019s a great time to see what style works best for you,\u201d Dougherty said. \u201cAll the classes we are going to offer that day are great for any level, especially people that have never done yoga.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dougherty said flexibility is not a requirement to do yoga, as many people believe.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe goal is to do yoga and that helps build flexibility in the body. It also helps with awareness, how you breathe, and how you move,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The event is free but there will be $1 raffle tickets available for yoga class cards, yoga gear and more. Raffle proceeds will benefit The ARK and the Kids Bucks program at the Farmers Market.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe encourage people to bring a chair, bring a yoga mat, they don\u2019t have to participate they can just come and hang out in a relaxed atmosphere if they choose,\u201d Dougherty said.<\/p>\n
