Free outdoor yoga classes at El Paseo Community Garden in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood.

El Paseo Community Garden Yoga Classes offers free, donation-based outdoor yoga sessions in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood at 944 West 21st Street next to Alivio Medical Center. The program includes Family Yoga, Power Vinyasa, Kids Yoga with Sandie on the first Saturday of each month at 9 a.m., and Senior/Gentle Yoga on Mondays at 6:30 p.m., all weather permitting and running until fall temperatures drop below 60 degrees. Classes are taught by Edith Rodriguez, a bilingual English-Spanish instructor certified since 2016 who has taught at the garden since 2017, and emphasize accessibility for all levels and abilities. A $5 suggested donation is welcome via Venmo or cash, but no one is turned away for lack of funds. Participants should bring a yoga mat (a few are available), water bottle, and bug spray. COVID guidelines encourage social distancing and staying home if sick. For cancellations or information, contact Edith at 312-970-9633.
