blog #91: Lululemon’s complimentary yoga class


This past weekend I finally made it to a free yoga class at Lululemon on E. 66th and Third Ave. This isn’t just a one-time free class -- it’s offered every weekend, so I encourage anyone who lives near a Lululemon location to check out the schedule at their local store.

What is Lululemon?
Lululemon’s first studio, a store offering athletic apparel, opened in 1998 in Vancouver. There are now more than 100 locations in the U.S., Canada, Australia, China, and more.

The Yoga Class
The class was offered inside the clothing store, and the space was neat and tidy. Mats were laid out among the clothing displays. The class was overcrowded (it’s free, after all), but the instructor was great . The class was a level 1 vinyasa class so beginners were welcome as well as more advanced yogis. The instructor did a good job at demonstrating various levels of the poses.  The room was packed with practitioners of all levels from beginners to. There were also a handful of men in attendance. Overall, it was a good experience.
