Roots2Rise has partnered with Parks on Tap, the traveling beer garden, to bring outdoor yoga to 20 Philly parks from May through September.
Attendees can fit in a workout before enjoying a beer, glass of wine or hammock nap at the pop-up.

Each class will be a $10 suggested donation to attend. The yoga instructors leading the session are volunteering their time so that all money raised can go toward Roots2Rise's mission of making yoga and mindfulness accessible to populations, demographics and communities where it has not been traditionally available.
The goal is to raise $7,000, which will be used to provide free weekly classes at recreation centers across the city. With the money, Roots2Rise can provide 273 free classes from September through May of 2018.
