2019 OUTDOOR SCHEDULE
We’re excited to be returning to the Schuylkill Banks for our 6th year of donation-based outdoor classes. In response to student requests, we’ve adjusted our times this year, offering classes earlier during the weekend, and later on Thursday evenings. Yoga on the Banks meets on the grassy area at 25th and Locust, near the Schuylkill River Banks boardwalk in Philadelphia. In order to meet our mission of making yoga accessible to everyone, Yoga on the Banks is donation-based, and has no set fee. This program is entirely supported by you – our students – and your donation is gratefully accepted to support our teachers and assistants, insurance costs, and the administration of this program.
Saturdays: 10am – 11am
Sundays: 10am – 11am
Thursdays: 7pm – 8pm
We accept donations by cash, and through our Venmo account: @Yogaonthe-Banks
Philadelphia Yoga on the Banks classes are accessible to all levels of students – even if this is your very first yoga class! Bring a friend, bring your child, even bring your well-behaved dog. Because we practice outside in the warmer months, we suggest you bring your own mat or towel to practice on, sunglasses and sunscreen, and water bottle. There is a free public water fountain on site, and a public restroom. For up-date-weather and other announcements, please follow our Facebook page.

Hi! I’m looking forward to these classes– however the website doesn’t indicate when this regular schedule will start and the facebook link included doesn’t work…. can you clarify when this schedule will be active? 🙂
Thanks!
