ariel yoga

emma, thank you so much for being with us today. on mother's day weekend you can take part in the tri-cities largest yoga event.

ariel yoga, to talk to us more about the great day of yoga held right here in johnson city, kimberling, sydney far the --

farthing both joining us. talk to us a little bit about the great day of yoga. the first time you guys are holding this. right? that's right. we are excited. this is the first time we know

of that we've seen so many studios from this area come together for a cause. so for us it really is maybe a step to something bigger. hopefully we can do this every year. we're going to be featuring different teachers and

instructors from all these different studios who are participating and we're going to be raising money for achieving landmark status for downtown johnson city over there at the park where the library is. wonderful.

all the money raised. it cost $5. all the money raised will go back into trying to achieve that landmark status. tell me a little bit about what people can expect when they come to the event. what kind of vendors and

classes will be there? may 13 like you said. 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. we are expecting to have multiple vendors. yoga related. we've got massage therapists. essential oils and ariel arts

studio and things like that. wanted to bring studios from the tri-cities together so we got two from bristol and two from johnson city and one from kingsport. what are some of the classes people can take lex one starts at 3:15.

the other starts at 4:15. you can take both. they are going to be available to all levels. one of the really exciting things about this is we are hoping to see people who have never tried yoga before. sometimes there are question

marks. they don't know what to expect. so we hope to give them an environment and we're going to make sure that it is open to all levels. we're going to have people and demonstration platforms and have other teachers going

around assisting people who need extra help so we want to make sure everyone feels comfortable and has a good time. you said there's not just yoga going but some vendors as well. tell me about that. multiple people.

afterwards also u-haul is going to provide everybody with a half pint of beer. there you go. [ laughter ] yoga classes. like you said. it's $5 to get in and you get one ticket for a door prize drawing.

each studio has their own basket. we are going to give those away as well. what do you hope people will take out of this event when they go there? i think for me from my perspective it's just to create

a yoga community and everyone meet everyone. you kind of get your home studio and the place you're comfortable with maybe where you've been going for a while. now you can meet and greet the other people in the community. everyone has their preferences

but it's nice for everyone to get together and have a good and also trying to achieve absolutely. thank you so much for joining us . about the great day of yoga. that is happening on mother's
