SUMMARY:Yoga at the Brewery
DESCRIPTION:Every first Sunday of the month is kicked off by yoga with Sanford Yoga & Community Center starting at 11am (in April the event is moved to the second Sunday – the 12th – due to Easter). Yoga is immediately followed by Stitch & B**ch where both stitching and b***hing are featured (stitching is optional.) This growing group is for anyone who wants to connect with others who are frustrated with the state of the world around them – not surprisingly there’s a lot to share & it’s done in a fun\, and often even productive\, fashion.
