This one-off event with NYC yoga instructor Dina Smirnova is swapping the traditional yoga sounds of babbling brooks and wind-chimes for Drake in a hip hop yoga class — proving that anything is possible when it comes to this strange new world of hybrid yoga classes.
Dina's original teaching style combines all the classics of vinyasa, but with a R'n'B flavour. In a candle-lit room. Expect a few hip hop battles, fast-moving sequences to a live DJ set blaring all the Drake classics. It's not your average way to open up your chakras, and will be testing for those used to downward dogging at a slower pace. But YogaDrake has been praised by non-yoga lovers as a great way to find their personal namaste — albeit onewith heaps more street cred.
This class will be held at Footscray's Bluestone Church Arts Space on Saturday, November 14 from 7-9pm, and vegan treats will be available on the night. Best of all, entry is by gold coin donation.
