Yoga at McQuade

Tuesdays 5:30-6:30pm

June  - August

Silver Creek Sauna Co. sessions after yoga on select dates!

with Amanda Imes

Outdoor yoga next to scenic Lake Superior.

McQuade Safe Harbor is located 5 miles north of Duluth, a short and scenic drive!

For those of you in Duluth or up the shore, or planning a summer vacation, join Amanda for yoga on Gitchi Gumi!

THIS WILL BE A FUN, LIGHT-HEARTED WAY TO BE SOCIAL, SPEND TIME OUTDOORS. YOU’LL GET YOUR BARE FEET IN THE GRASS AND GET IN A BIT OF FEEL GOOD MOVEMENT IN THE FRESH AIR WITH A VIEW OF LAKE SUPERIOR.

When:

  • We’ll meet Tuesday evenings from 5:30-6:30pm May 28th-August 27th, with no classes July 2nd, 9th, or 16th. 

  • Join the email list for pop-up classes and cancellations! Generally speaking, if the temperature is below 60 and/or there are big storms in the forecast, yoga will be cancelled. Cancellation will be announced to the email list (scroll to the bottom to sign-up for emails).

    Cost is:

    • $10 per class, or pay what ya can!

    • $70 for full summer pass! f you’d like to save a bit and make a full commitment to the summer classes, buy a full summer pass. Whoop!

What to expect:

The style will be an all-levels vinyasa flow. My classes tend to be invigorating and energizing, but I will be sure to offer modifications, so all feel welcome!

What to bring:

  • yoga mat + beach towel under yoga mat is nice outside

  • layered clothing (cooler by the lake!)

  • water bottle

  • swimsuit + towel for select sauna sessions (details below)

Parking & Location:

  • To get there, park in the lot above McQuade and look for me in the grassy area overlooking McQuade. We practice in the grass above the park and overlooking the lake to avoid noisy distractions vs. down in the actual park itself.
