Brewasanas: Bringing 'Om' and Beer Together
Time to get your ‘om’ on Denver! Adrienne Rinaldi, AKA BeerSnobChick, is bringing together two favorite pastimes: Yoga and beer. DrinkDenver is totally on board. We recently attended one of her unique Brewasanasas classes at Jagged Mountain Brewery downtown.
Rinaldi, a certified yoga instructor, brings her yoga classes to her favorite breweries around Denver and Boulder. Enjoy a fun, yet intense yoga class and then receive a pint of beer from the brewery afterward to reward yourself for a workout well done. What a combo!
The yoga offered by Rinaldi is Vinyasa Yoga and the moves can be as easy or as hard as your flexibility can handle. Everyone is encouraged to go at their own pace from beginners to the advanced. The classes focus on fluid sequence (asanas) and breath (pranayama) and will leave you both fatigued, yet invigorated at the same time. Classes are held in the back of the selected brewery so you don’t have to worry about the regulars questioning your posture. Tickets are only $20 and can be purchased by cash or card upon arrival. Get a 3-pack of classes for only $50 or bring a friend and get two for $35. Attendees also need to bring their own mat and some water for hydration during the class. Afterward, the whole class can hang out and chat while drinking pints. It’s a great way to meet new people and try new beers.
Classes for the rest of March are Mondays at Jagged Mountain downtown Denver, March 24 and March 31, Happy Leaf Kombucha on Wednesday, March 26, and Kokopelli Brewing on Tuesday, April 1, in Westminster. Classes start at 6 PM, but arrive a few minutes early to take care of your payment. Guests can pre-register online at brewasanas.com and pay at the class. Check the website calendar for a yoga and beer event near you.
