> Newsletters > Summer Fun with Heartsong Yoga
Summer Fun with Heartsong YogaThis weekend kicks formally kicks off the summer season with the summer solstice on Sunday, June 21. To celebrate, we are offering some wonderful community events this weekend at Heartsong Yoga.
Please join us as we sing and play together on Friday night with a Kirtan, we call it a "Yoga Sing a Long" with yoga mantra, chant, call and response prayer and song. What a blast!
On Saturday, at 7 am, we host our first annual "Give Back Yoga Day" with 108 sun salutations to greet the day, a fundraiser for the "Give Back Yoga Foundation" and the chance to share your abundance with a generous food item donation for our local Open Pantry in Springfield.
Everyone is welcome to bring in food donations through next week, June 24, when Tony will take them downtown and drop them off. Please support this very important community event.
