Salutation Nation 2011

This Saturday, Sept. 10, at 9 a.m., head outside to celebrate National Yoga Month by unrolling your mat and joining thousands of people for Salutation Nation. Hosted by Lululemon, the event encourages people across the US to practice yoga simultaneously. The yoga apparel giant is also hosting complimentary classes at locations across the nation, so yogis can practice together, too. Find one near you on the Salutation Nation website.

Hopping into a yoga class at a studio is always a great experience, but flowing through postures outside with hundreds of men and women moving and breathing along with you sounds pretty powerful. And when you take a moment to think about the thousands of yogis who stop what they're doing all across America to breathe in Down Dog with you, it's even more amazing. Watch this video to learn more about the event.
