The free beach yoga celebrated their 50th event at Eden on the Bay last week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Tuesday at 09:00, those interested in yoga make their way to Bloubergstrand for a special yoga session with 56-year-old Michael O\u2019Rourke from Sunningdale who describes yoga as \u201cbecoming whole again, a beautiful union between body, mind and spirit\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TygerBurger<\/span> previously reported about the \u201cyoga guru\u201d who captured everyone\u2019s heart with his free yoga classes (\u2018Yoga on the beach\u2019, 7 December 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O\u2019Rourke stumbled across yoga about 10 years ago, completely unplanned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was one of those serendipitous moments where I was drawn towards something but not knowing why at the time,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

50th event donations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The event since grew from 10 people to sometimes over 100, doing regular stretches and yoga movements every Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBecause of this sense of community and joy that we have created, we will be sharing our energy and love with an amazing charity. *<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevolutionary Yoga started out some years ago offering free yoga to kids and adults in the areas of Cape Town that experience unthinkable daily changes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHowever, through this initiative, they simply could not ignore the hunger that they witnessed for both humans and pets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have since set up feeding stations throughout these areas and now they feed hundreds of people and pets every day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd of course the yoga continues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O\u2019Rourke urged all who attended Tuesday\u2019s event to show their support by donating dog and cat food, rice, legumes and pasta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would also be hugely grateful if you can share this event with friends and perhaps ask organisations that you know to contribute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf Tuesday is not possible for you or you can\u2019t get someone to drop some items, another option would be to donate via their website.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join the free yoga classes every Tuesday in Bloubergstrand.<\/div>\n

O\u2019Rourke says he was blown away by the presence of so many \u201cjoyous souls\u201d that joined the classes last Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThank you Theresa for joining us and thank you to @freefoodkitchen for the tremendous community work you are doing. I hope the donations will help feed many hungry people and animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRemember to be kind. Remember to be loving. Remember to feel all your feelings and to take care of yourself. But most of all, remember to be happy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classes start at 09:00. All welcome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
