Yoga class takes its art form to a new level.
1Some people call practicing yoga an art form. It helps people find inner peace and strength.
"What I really love about yoga is the connection of mind and body through the breath, through life force, through energy and bringing those into harmony", yoga instructor Ayla Trotman explains.
Lifeway Kefir Immersive Yoga mixes art and yoga in a way that has never been done before. During class, Van Gogh’s works like Starry night and Sunflowers animate on 300,000 cubic feet of projection space.
"When the program starts, paintings come to life and they are choreographed with music and are completely enveloping every surface in the room including the floor", Associate General Manager of Lighthouse Immersive Ron Doroba reveals.
"You felt like you were in another world", yoga enthusiast Michelle says, "you are just kind of mesmerized by what you see, what you feel".
"You can take in the beautiful surroundings", class attendee Kealani adds, "it just brings a lot more peace than I guess taking yoga in a traditional, bright studio with mirrors".
Practicing yoga immersed in Van Gogh’s works adds a deeper level of connection to the 35-minute class.
"It motivates you to just keep going and to just take a moment and take a deep breath and enjoy your surroundings".
"I hope to provide something that really let’s them burn off some steam and also open up and create space for whatever the day has to offer", Trotman reveals.
"I feel great. I feel energized and doing something like this has really set my day off for success", Kealani shares.
