About the event

After a successful lot of events in 2023, Hike & Yoga is returning this year for more time in nature, connecting to ourselves and others! 

Join Amanda and Alexandra for Ground into Nature: a mindful walk and yoga practice in the forests of the North Shore. Reconnect with nature and yourself as we explore the beautiful surroundings of Vancouver and ground through mindful practices.

Spring is the season of renewal, and as we witness nature's changes, our bodies also evolve. Amanda and Alexandra will share Ayurveda-based wisdom on how we are interconnected with nature and how these changes impact us.

After this time in community and nature, you will feel refreshed, grounded, and a sense of fulfilment.
