Summer on the Hudson's North Park Yoga is a free, restorative way to start the day in upper Manhattan — an instructor-led flow on the Riverside Park lawn with the Hudson stretching out beyond the trees. It's open to all levels and all ages, trading the studio for grass, breeze and river light. Roll out a mat, breathe with the water in view, and ease into the day for nothing at all.
What to expect
Expect an instructor-led class on the lawn near 145th Street, with participants spread out on mats and the Hudson as a backdrop. The pace suits beginners and regulars alike. Bring your own mat, water and sun protection.
