LOS ANGELES, CA - Hundreds of people rolled out Dodger blue yoga mats for a little warrior pose and cobra, on May 25. “It was really a beautiful thing,” Mia Togo, a master yoga teacher who led all those people in a half-hour class, after the Rockies lost to the Dodgers, 1-0 told the Los Angeles Times. “That’s one of the reasons I teach yoga — it builds community and connection. That’s the point of bringing yoga to Dodger Stadium.”
Participants bought game tickets that also included the yoga mat and class after the game. Togo estimated 850 participants; the Dodgers said the total was close to 1,000.
Togo called it “surreal” to see so many people practicing yoga at once — more than 10 times the number in her most popular classes at YogaWorks, where she teaches students and teachers-in-training. Twenty assistants worked the crowd. (L.A.Times)
