About Free Day of Yoga
Free Day of Yoga began in Austin, Texas in 1999, and has been slowly growing and spreading throughout Texas and the United States. On Labor Day Monday – September 6, 2010 – studios and teachers throughout the community offer classes and workshops free. This year, Wimberley, Texas, in the heart of hill country, will join in the fun with classes throughout the day.

Here in Wimberley, the local yoga instructors are proud to offer our second Free Day of Yoga event, with an abundance of classes throughout the day at multiple locations in Wimberley and Driftwood.
All our classes are appropriate for beginners, and will be challenging and fun for regular yoga practitioners too. Choose a new location, a new teacher, or a new yoga experience, and enjoy the day!
Things to know before your first class:
- Yoga is easiest on a semi-empty stomach. Not hungry enough to be distracted, but not at all full is best. Stick to a piece of fruit or handful of nuts within an hour or two of your class. Bring a bottle of water.
- Try to arrive 10 – 15 minutes before class begins to get a mat and spot in the room
- Bare feet and comfortable, stretchy clothing are all you need for yoga. If you have a mat, feel free to bring it along.
- Yoga is a type of exercise that allows for deep relaxation, and a break from the noisy world outside. Please turn off your cell phone and give this time to yourself.
- Perfumes and body sprays can be a distraction in the yoga room; try to be “scent-free.”
