Saturday: Global Yoga Flash Mob
I love the energy of the yoga community. Like a flash flood, a flash mob comes together like a FLASH!, flows through Sun Salutations–and then, it’s gone.
This Saturday, three flash mobs are happening around the world. In London, Nairobi, and Los Angeles, yogis will come together to raise awareness about the upcoming documentary Yoga for Unity, which highlights the work of the Africa Yoga Project and explores how yoga can be used to combat tribalism, violence, and poverty.

Baron Baptiste, executive producer on the film, will be speaking at the LA event, which is taking place at the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. Train More!
