Danville Yoga Studio To Host Summer Solstice Event
Visit the open house for free yoga and mini wellness sessions and support the local businesses involved.
DANVILLE, CA —YogaSix is ready to celebrate the summer solstice and International Yoga Day with the Danville community.
The studio will host a Summer Love Party and Yoga Open House June 17-19.
“The changing of seasons that come with the Summer Solstice is a time of transformation and new beginnings,” owner Marybeth Thomson said. “It is also an opportunity to take stock and review the intentions made at New Year. Yoga can support this process of transformation by including practices that create heat in the body and build our inner strength."
Free classes will be offered throughout the weekend as well as a chance to support other local businesses.
“On the 18th, featured local businesses will join the festivities, including: Goat Racer Coffee and Danville Brewing plus mini wellness sessions to experience Reiki healing, hypnotherapy, ayurvedic pulse readings and consultations with Ayutherapy, Sound Bath demos and chair massages from Cantrell Chiropractic,” Thomson said.

The word Sun Salutation comes from the Sanskrit word Surya meaning, “sun” and Namaskara meaning, ‘to bow to’, Thomson told Patch.
“Sun Salutations were used during morning rituals to receive the healing energy of the sun,” she said. “Over time, they’ve evolved to become a key part of conditioning the body and calming the mind, helping yogis disconnect from the pressures of modern daily life.”
