Bourbonnais adds free outdoor yoga session at Cavalier de LaSalle Park
Bourbonnais turned Cavalier de LaSalle Park into a free June 27 Vinyasa class, with Nathan teaching an all-levels session that asked for a mat, water and a signed waiver.
Bourbonnais added a free outdoor yoga session at Cavalier de LaSalle Park on June 27, giving residents a one-hour Vinyasa flow from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. The Village of Bourbonnais teamed with Soul Moon Studio on the all-levels class, which was built around breath-to-movement practice in a public park setting.
The session took place at Cavalier de LaSalle Park, 1000 Percy Dr. in Bourbonnais. The Kankakee County Chamber of Commerce listing named Nathan as the instructor for the June 27 class and set the age minimum at 15 and up. Participants were told to bring a yoga mat, water and a towel, and to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early.
The logistics were straightforward, but they mattered. Anyone under 18 needed a parent or guardian to complete the online waiver before attending, and children under 16 had to be accompanied by an adult. That kind of entry requirement, along with the free admission, made the class feel less like a closed studio offering and more like an open invitation to step into yoga without much friction.
The Village said Yoga in the Park ran every Saturday in June, not just June 27, and described the format as a rejuvenating Vinyasa flow meant to connect movement with outdoor surroundings and sounds. That makes the event part of Bourbonnais’ broader recreation mix, where a park morning can double as a wellness session for beginners and regular practitioners alike.
Soul Moon Studio brought the local studio side of the partnership. The Bourbonnais business describes itself as offering vinyasa flow, yin, restorative, sculpt and mat-barre/Pilates fusion, and says it has an infrared-heated studio. Its team page identifies Emily as the owner and visionary behind the studio, which added another local name to a program designed to feel welcoming rather than specialized.
Bourbonnais has used the same basic formula before, with past free yoga-in-the-park events led by Olive Branch Yoga and supported by sponsors including Aqua Illinois, ComEd, Stacked Nutrition and Belson Steel Center Scrap Inc. The June 27 class fit that pattern cleanly: a park, a mat, a waiver and a free hour to make yoga visible in the middle of town.
