With summer in full swing, it is the perfect time to try some new fitness routines for the mind and body. If you are based in NYC, we have some amazing Outdoor Yoga Nyc classes for you to check out. From beginner to advanced, from East Side to West Side, we have you covered for your outdoor yoga NYC experience this summer!

Bryant Park

Bryant Park has become a staple of all must-do outdoor activities in New York City. From its holiday ice-skating rink and outdoor artist’s fair to its close proximity to the New York Public Library, Bryant Park has it all. One of its amazing offerings is outdoor yoga NYC style, brought to you by Athleta and the Yoga Journal. Offered on Tuesdays 6-7p.m. and Thursdays from 10-11a.m., the instructors are all certified yogis who will lead you in an hour-long journey to inner peace. Bring your own mat, towel, and water along with an open mind as you prepare yourself for an epic outdoor yoga NYC class!

Mr. Purple Outdoor Yoga Bar

This kind of bar will leave you drenched in sweat – but not the kind you get from that Friday dive bar. This outdoor yoga NYC bar will give your body a total workout… from 15 floors up at the Hotel Indigo LES on Orchard Street. All yoga instructors are certified by Pure Yoga, and the classes cost $25 each, but include a post-class fruit and veggie juice assortment to help complete the detoxifying process that is the trademark of any well-run yoga class. Mats are provided, but yogis are encouraged to bring their own towels and water.

Battery Park

Few places have the name recognition that Battery Park has. The classic New York park has a stunning view of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty, and is home to 25 acres of green space. On Wednesday evenings this summer, you can enjoy being by the water with Tejal Patel’s vinyasa flow from 6:30-7:30 p.m. City Sports on Broadway will even loan you a mat and give you a free water to help you get the most out of this $5 class, a steal when it comes to outdoor yoga NYC!

Laughing Lotus

Runners, rejoice! A yoga flow just for you. This outdoor yoga NYC comes with a twist; yogis meet at Laughing Lotus Yoga Center in Brooklyn at 8a.m. on Saturday mornings to run across the Williamsburg Bridge as a group, then reconvene at Laughing Lotus for recovery yoga and some cold-press fruit and veggie juices. For only $22 a class, this is a marvelous outdoor yoga NYC way to get your weekend off on the right foot!

Wave Hill

For our friends in the Bronx, consider trying the outdoor yoga NYC provided for just $25 a class at Wave Hill. Led by the certified yogis of Yoga for Bliss, classes are available at two times: Sundays at 10a.m. and Wednesdays at 6 p.m. The class is 75 minutes long and promises a gentle vinyasa flow to center your mind and body. Bring your own mat, towel, and water to enjoy this awesome outdoor yoga NYC experience!
