Solstice Party 2023

June 21 is International Yoga Day, the summer solstice and it's also National Indigenous Peoples Day. That sounds like we should celebrate!

Join us, outside on the yoga deck behind Bala studio to shop, socialize and take a yoga class. Participate in all or some of the events. Shopping and social starts at 6:30pm, the incredible healing touch sound bath starts at 7:30pm and we will wrap up around 9:00pm.

Local makers and vendors will be on-site and details to be announced as we get closer to the event.

Details on the class:

-Sound bath with hands on healing touch led by Paola Tomei and  assisted by Jessy Thomas

-Class is by donation of what you can afford to The Barrie Native Friendship Centre

-There is space for 20 on the deck and lots of space on the surrounding lawn

-All experience levels and abilities welcome

-Come 10 minutes early if you've never been to class here before to fill out a new student form

-Bring a mat or blanket to lie on (or to keep you warm and cozy as we won't be moving very much) if you have one. Mats and props are available to use if you don't remember

Details on the clothing swap:

-Go through your closests to find clothing and accessories you don't wear. Bring them to the studio to donate
