It’s summertime and that means at least three months of opportunities to practice yoga in unique spaces with lots of natural influences to infuse your flow.
Craving fun in the sun? We’ve found you the best yoga on the beach, in the park, on a farm, in a barn, and more.
Here are just a sampling of the offerings this summer – we are putting out a challenge to our yogi tribe to try them all! Roll up your mat, pack a bag with you beach towel, sunglasses, sunscreen, water, and a few extra layers for savasana – and don’t miss out. Summer is only here for a few short months. We need to make the most of it.
And tag us on @njyogacollective with other events. We are always looking to add to the incredible list of offerings.

May Louie first took yoga in college to fulfill a Phys-Ed requirement and immediately fell in love. She, unfortunately, did not continue with her practice but reconnected with it when she retired from her corporate job in 2002 and has since become a serious yoga enthusiast. After her second retirement in 2017, she completed her 200-hour RYT certification, studying with Dina Crosta, Ellen Mosko, and Jamie Segal Hanley, with a focus on alignment based flow.
