River Garden Yoga Center Closes

The cooperative based on W. 7th St. offered a welcoming and peaceful environment for people from across the community to gather, relax, explore their bodies through yoga, and calm their thoughts through meditation. Jeffrey Austin, the director of the center, reflected on the decision to close at the end of May, citing challenges resulting from the pandemic and writing, “I am so grateful to have been able to share these past many years with you. To be a small part of something way bigger than myself. For me, and I think for many others, there was something very unique and special about this place, and what that unique and special quality was, is you – each and every one of you.” Those looking to say farewell can reach out to him at jeffrey@rivergardenyoga.com.
