As downtown Muskegon transforms itself from urban mall to contemporary downtown, a new health and fitness opportunity is among the offerings. Three certified yoga teachers plan to offer retreats, nutrition workshops and stress reduction classes.
According to excerpts from the story:
Local yogis have a new place to practice, and get calm and centered, in downtown Muskegon. Muskegon Yoga Center, at 825 W. Western, opened in mid-May with three certified teachers offering nine classes per week. A beach yoga session with Barb Badolati started June 2 and will meet 6-7:15 p.m. Tuesdays through Aug. 18 at Pere Marquette Park in the grass near the Coast Guard Station. The yoga center is designed to be a peaceful place conveniently located across from the YMCA, where all ages and skill levels can further their yoga practice or come to rest and rejuvenate from everyday demands. With the Lakeshore Trail bike path nearby, it also is a nice addition to the hub for health and fitness for the Muskegon area, said teacher Peter Violino. Grand Haven and the White Lake area both have yoga studios, and it was time for Muskegon to have one, said Badolati, who has taught classes at various locations downtown.
