YOGA ON THE LAKE BEGINS JULY 1
The Wildwood Crest Recreation Department
will offer free evening yoga classes this summer
on the beautiful shores of Sunset Lake at Miami
Road. Classes will be held every Tuesday and
Thursday evening from 7:30 p.m. to dusk beginning
July 1 and concluding Aug. 28.
Recreation leader Bobi Watson will direct an
eclectic array of styles, calming the mind, focusing
energy and enhancing the yogic journey, while
simultaneously offering the opportunity to enjoy
a twilight sunset on the beautiful Sunset Lake bay
front, one of the few spots in Cape May County
where the sun sets over water.
This free-of-charge class will bring people
together to learn, strengthen and integrate various
yoga techniques, including Savasana (total
relaxation), sometimes under the stars. Participants
are encouraged to join the program for one class
or for the entire summer season. Participants are
asked to arrive at least five minutes before class
