The organizers of Charivari Detroit are long-time friends of Bikes and Yoga / Detroit Community Yoga, and they're fundraising to make Charivari Detroit Passion 2018 a reality. Please consider donating to this grassroots electronic music festival in the city. The admission this year will be FREE if their fundraising goals are met, and that's great for everyone!

An update for our Bikes and Yoga friends: We thank you for your patience and your messages! Looks like this year we will not be able to have any Bikes and Yoga meet ups after all. Bikes and Yoga has always been a grassroots effort. As organizers over the last 4 years, Ambyr and I have experienced a few obstacles in getting this year's 4th season going. But we appreciate your support and your good vibes!

Our hope is that we can be in a place next year to once again offer this free meet up and continue the tradition and legacy of our unique, weekly biking + yoga pairing.

In the meantime, looks like there's no dearth of yoga offerings on Belle Isle right now, so please make sure you're getting out and experiencing the lovely folks who are currently offering donation-based and fee-based yoga on Belle Isle. Lots of yoga love in the city and it will only continue growing!

So...as they say...see you next year! We will continue sharing other city events, including Detroit Community Yoga's free offerings, and other biking events around the city.

Love and yoga to you all.

Most of you know about it, but if you've missed the news, one of our past Bikes and Yoga teachers, Beth James, is putting on her Barefoot and Free Yoga Festival for the 2nd year in a row. It starts today and runs through Sunday.

There are day passes for classes and workshops, and there are music-only passes! There will be a wide variety of local and national teachers, presenters, and musicians at the festival, as well as vendors and a lot of cool peeps. So, if you have a free evening or morning, consider this festival for your weekend plans! See you there!

Hi Friends! We know you are all excitedly anticipating our summertime classes, and we know you want some updates because many of you have been sending us messages. To put on a free weekly event like this, it takes a lot of effort and back-end administrative maneuvering as we all work to plan our personal time & our work commitments, as well as our commitment to this community class. We do not have a start date yet due to various delays in the planning process, but once we do, we will certainly announce it here on our page. So please follow our page and trust that we will let you know as soon as we know. In the meantime, enjoy Belle Isle and all of the other free fitness events available in the City of Detroit during the work week!

This season--our fourth--our fearless bike leader, Amber Prystupa, is taking the lead with planning our weekly classes, and if you have any questions, you can contact her at aeonian.design.graphics@gmail.com or you can message us through the page.

So stay tuned and enjoy the sunshine and the people in our beautiful city in the meantime!

Just a reminder, Bikes and Yoga friends, that our official page and our Facebook event for Bikes and Yoga is the definitive place for information on our event. Please note that external websites (& community calendars) or FB pages may list different "end dates" or details for our event, but may be inaccurate. We end our weekly event this week on Sept 1st, and it has been listed that way for quite a while. Detroit Community Yoga appreciates other FB pages and community websites listing our event for Detroiters to see, but just remember that our page has the up-to-date info on it. We just want to make sure our biking yogis don't get confused.

Looking forward to seeing you all this Thursday!!!

Detroit Community Yoga has organized Bikes and Yoga on Belle Isle for three summers now. Cindy & Amber have volunteered their time to make this weekly event happen each May to September. We are proud to host a different teacher each week at Bikes and Yoga, and give yogis an opportunity to have a little taste of many teachers all summer long.

Thank you to Melissa Whorf of Yoga Shelter Grosse Pointe for teaching this week on what was most certainly one of our most beautiful days of the season! It was a wonderful class filled with many familiar and new faces. Thank you to everyone who came out, and to Sydney for leading the ride!

Next week is our LAST Bikes and Yoga of the season, so if you haven't come yet this year, please consider coming out to experience Belle Isle with us. Visit our website for more information, including the online waiver: www.bikesandyoga.org.
