Free Warrior Poet Yoga Series kicks off in May

Following the success of the free Traveling Yoga Series from last year, yoga teacher Steve Willis will be presenting Warrior Poet Yoga again this year, Kenosha County Parks announced Tuesday.

The weekend series begins May 7 and runs from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. every Saturday and Sunday through the end of September, weather permitting, at various Kenosha County Parks locations.

This program is sponsored by Willis, a retired Army veteran who began teaching yoga in the Army and has since taught at posts in the United States and three other countries around the world. He holds several international registrations through Yoga Alliance and continues his studies now with the Veterans Yoga Project.

“Traveling yoga has been a popular program in our parks, and we’re excited to bring it back for 2022,” said Kenosha County Parks Director Matthew Collins. “Sessions will again be held in park locations across the entire county. It’s a great opportunity for residents everywhere to enjoy some weekend exercise, fresh air and relaxation.”
