Beach Yoga Chicago is a proud branch of Yoga Gardens not for profit organization. We strive to teach peace through yoga and meditation. Taking a class with us on Montrose and or North Ave Beach is an excellent way to support Yoga Gardens as proceeds benefit Yoga Garden NFP. If you would like more information on Yoga Gardens please visit www.yogagardens.org

What We Do: We allocate vacant lots in developing residential areas, which often accumulate garbage, attract criminal activity, and ultimately become a burden on the residents. Yoga Gardens transforms each lot into a thriving yoga & gardening community space. We offer free yoga classes to the Garfield Park and West Side communities as well as free organic food which we grow on site. 

Yoga Gardens NFP is a not-for-profit organization in Chicago. Our goal is to aid and uplift children and young adults of impoverished Chicago neighborhoods. Through yoga, meditation, and healthier food options we relieve stress and disease in areas where these difficulties are most prevalent. As yogis we believe that it is our responsibility to give back to our community and Yoga Gardens makes it our mission to do so.
