Community Hike & Yoga

Join us for a community hike at East Lakeshore!

Located about 30 minutes from Blue Ridge Yoga, East Lakeshore is a great local hiking spot with trails around Tellico Lake. The trails are well maintained and are easy to moderate in difficulty.

Leading our hike will be BRY Teacher Training Graduate & Outdoor Enthusiast Ashley Siferd Butler. Ashley lives a stone's throw from Great Smoky Mountains National Park and enjoys practicing outside, birding, and squishing her toes in the earth. She believes yoga is for everybody and every body, and lives by the motto that you hike your own hike!

Ashley will be incorporating yoga 'snacks' into our time outdoors for a unique experience!

We will begin with a gentle yoga for hiking warm-up before starting off on the trail. Once we reach the end of the trail, we will take a short rest for a snack and yoga/meditation practice. We will finish up with an after-hike stretch once we get back to the trailhead.

Please RSVP in advance. Space is limited to a small group of no more than 15.

Please bring hand sanitizer, your face mask/covering, a snack/lunch, and water for the trail. Bring a towel for sitting during yoga if you'd like.

We will practice social distancing during our hike - please be prepared to maintain distance from other hikers and participants while on the trail and during yoga practice.
