The Grand Canyon Field Institute, Grand Canyon Association’s premier outdoor education program, has hosted a number of invigorating yoga workshops on the South Rim over the years. This November 21-24, the magic moves to the canyon floor.

Longtime yoga instructors Kelley Ingols and Sherri O’Neil will be teaming up for a women-only, two-night stay at Bright Angel Campground. From top to bottom, they will be carving out time for a maximum of nine participants to explore the wonders of yoga, all the while surrounded by the walls of the grandest of canyons. Don’t miss this first GCFI event of its kind.
