About
It can be difficult to escape the noise in the city, commune with nature, and relieve stress but at Beach Yoga Chicago you can do all three! Yogis roll out their mats on Chicago Beach's fine sands. As hushing waves, sweep before you and the natural beauty of Montrose Pointe Bird Sanctuary is behind you. Instructors offer a variety of classes to ensure practitioners of all levels can feel welcome during each session they attend.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a beach yoga session, and I am truly thrilled to give it a glowing 5-star review! The experience was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by a nice instructor, she was incredibly knowledgeable and provided clear, calming guidance throughout the session. Practicing yoga on the beach with the backdrop of the Lake was truly an unparalleled experience. It was incredibly rejuvenating, and I left feeling both physically and mentally revitalized. I highly recommend this beach yoga class for an unforgettable and serene escape in the city.
