CO Late August Events at Hudson Gardens

Hudson Gardens has a Honey Bee Hive
and offers classes on how to maintain your
own hive.

Hudson Gardens and Event Center in Littleton, CO has a very calming energy.  As you stroll through the over 30 acres of beauty, you can absorb the calm as you learn about the different ecosystems.  With free admission to the gardens themselves, access right off the Mary Carter Greenway path, the awesome Sunday night summer concert series and many family friendly activities, Hudson Gardens is one of my favorite places to visit.  Below are just a few of the events scheduled at Hudson Gardens in the near future.  As a bonus, here are a few photos I took there recently...


Art from local artists is interspersed in the gardens

 That's right, I saw Weird Al Yankovic perform there!

Colorado Summer Yoga Calendar - Events

There is so much going on in the Colorado Yoga community!  I know my son and I (Charla) signed up for the 8 class series of Yoga Rocks the Park being held at Sunken Gardens Park in Denver.  Come join us for some wonderful outdoor yoga.  Connecting with nature through your toes on the grass in the early morning air is inspirational!  Like last year, registration is free because of generous donations, so it won't cost you a thing.  Just click.  The rest of these events are also worth checking into.  Happy summer!

Wise Women’s Yoga ~ The Inner Flow  Every Friday  10a – 11:30a Double Rainbow Ranch  6541 N 63rd St Niwot CO $25 - Pre Registration Required

A class for women to open into connection with the sacred beauty within.  This practice is an opportunity to explore the hidden places - our uniqueness - and places that are asking to be honored and witnessed, which  sometimes need time and space to unfold: strength and softness - we hold space for that.  Through meditation, breath and asana we open to connection -- the inner flow -- and the possibility of discovering something new.
