One of my favorite things about the Des Moines area is how outdoor yoga classes are popping up everywhere in the summer! Normally, there are even more. With COVID a lot of places have put classes on hold or are only offering them virtually for the summer. Some classes are recurring and others are just one time things. I've compiled a list of free or cheap classes by location for you to enjoy :) A few are different/unique (SUP yoga and Goat yoga) as well. Make sure to check websites/Facebook pages to see if you need to register ahead.
