Yoglates II South will host the third annual Yoga on the Lawn on June 9 at Lipsey’s, 7277 Exchequer Drive, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The event will include a yoga class led by Yoglates II South, food bites by Ruffino’s, ice cream by Red River Bank, and beer provided by Mockler Beverage Company. Free skin cancer screenings will be provided by Mary Bird Perkins – Our Lady of the Lake Cancer Center and all proceeds benefit the cancer care organization.
April Hill, one of the founders of the event and owner of Yoglates II South, is passionate about Yoga on the Lawn’s impact in the community.
“What’s so great about this event is that we’re able to introduce people to yoga and help raise funds that will directly support cancer patients and their families locally,” said Hill. “My dear friend and fellow Yoglates instructor Tanie Bush received incredible care from the Cancer Center and it is an honor to host this event for her and all of those affected by cancer in our community.”
Tickets for Yoga on the Lawn are $40 prior to the event and $50 at the door. A limited number of VIP spots are available for $100. Individuals can also sign up 10 of their friends or family as a team and showcase their spirit with T-shirts, props, or other fun ways to show unity in the fight against cancer.
Proceeds from Yoga on the Lawn will help transform cancer care by advancing prevention, research, survivorship, innovation, teamwork, and patient assistance at the Cancer Center.
