夏のニューヨークと言えば、コンサート、映画、演劇、モダンダンスなどの無料の野外イベントがいーっぱい!!! 近年、特に急増中なのが野外ヨガ・クラス。あまりに多すぎて把握しきれない・・・と思ったら、今年はヨガ教室のPure Yogaさんがスポンサーとなって、こんなまとめ資料(healthy summer guide to new york 2012)作ってくれました。すばらしい。
ニューヨーク市内18箇所20種類の無料または格安の野外ヨガ・クラスがずらり。いつの間にか夏のニューヨークは野外ヨガ天国?!
さらに、ニューヨークには3大ヨガ・メガ・イベント(Mega Yoga Events)ってのもあるんです。
これは6月~9月に開催される夏の野外ヨガ・クラスの中でも、大人数が参加するスペシャル・バージョンのヨガ祭り。しかも全部無料。ヨガ好きにはもちろん、初心者にもオススメ!!!
まず、1つ目が6月20日水曜日、タイムズス・クエアでのSummer Solstice 。なんとクラスが朝7時半、昼12時半、夜7時の3回も。続いて、8月16日木曜日、セントラルパーク中央部のGreat Lawnで開催されるGLBL YOGA(グローバルヨガ)。
このグローバルヨガ、まだ日本ではあまり知られてないかもしれませんが、今年1万5千人が参加する見込み・・・っていう世界最大規模の野外ヨガ・イベント。午後4時スタートで、ヨガ・クラスと音楽ライブが融合した90分になる予定。
そして最後は、9月9日日曜日、ハドソンリバーパークのPier 63でのWanderlust in the City。9月なのでまだ詳しい情報は未公開ですが、ニューヨークでは今年が2回目の新しい野外ヨガ・イベントです。ニューヨーク3大ヨガ・メガ・イベントだけ参加してもかなり楽しめるでしょう。
