Join us for a five-week exploration of Zentangle®, a meditative drawing method that uses simple, structured patterns to create beautiful, intricate artwork. Perfect for beginners and experienced creatives alike, this course encourages mindfulness, focus, and creative freedom in a relaxed, supportive setting.

Each week, you’ll be introduced to new tangles (patterns), techniques for shading and composition, and creative ways to build your own unique designs. As you progress, you’ll develop not only artistic skills but also tools for relaxation and self-expression.

No drawing experience is necessary—all materials are provided ($15 materials fee). If you can hold a pen, you can enjoy the calming, creative world of Zentangle!

Breathe deeply, stretch fully, and ground yourself in a practice rooted in history, nature, and mindful movement. Yoga at the Springs is an all-level outdoor yoga experience set on the storied grounds of Historic Yellow Springs, where centuries of healing, community, and creativity are woven into the land.

Each class will meet at the Barn before beginning a gentle walk to a thoughtfully chosen location on the grounds. Along the way you’ll learn about the history of the specific site where we’ll practice that day. From the remains of the historic hospital to the medicinal garden, to the natural springs that gave Yellow Springs its name, each setting offers a unique backdrop and a deeper sense of connection to place.

The yoga practice itself is designed to be accessible and grounding, allowing movement and breath to be informed by the environment around us. With changing locations throughout the season, no two classes are exactly the same.

In the event of rain or extreme weather, sessions will be held indoors.

Please bring your own mat, water bottle, and anything else you need for a comfortable outdoor experience. No prior yoga experience is necessary—just a willingness to move, breathe, and experience this historic landscape in a new way.
