Event Series: Watershed Weekend

Yoga & Community Connection

Begin your day by making history. Be part of the first group to practice Yoga and Mindfulness in some of the newest areas along the Glass City Riverwalk! Enjoy a free beginner-friendly Yoga and Mindfulness Meditation session led by Toledo Mindfulness Institute in partnership with Metroparks Toledo during Watershed Weekend.

This curated session invites participants to celebrate the many hands and hearts that have shaped the Riverwalk, while offering our shared intentions for its continued growth and future.

Open to all experience levels, this program launches the Our Wellness Shapes Toledo’s Future yoga series, combining gentle yoga and guided meditation to help participants feel grounded, refreshed, and inspired by what’s to come.

Our Wellness Shapes Toledo’s Future, and the future is here.

Then keep the energy going at River Crossing Outdoor Expo from 12 to 4 p.m. After yoga, head straight to the marquee Watershed Weekend event, where the MLK Bridge transforms into a car-free community space to walk, roll, play and explore, with activities on both banks of the river. It’s the perfect way to continue your day of wellness, movement and community connection while experiencing the riverfront in an entirely new way.
