Stretch Into Some Good Karma

Is there a better place to salute the sun than the Vineyard? Probably not, nor would there be another place with a better yoga-classes-to-people ratio. Today The Yard in Chilmark begins its morning classes — 7 a.m. weekdays, 8 on Saturday, 9 on Sunday — with well-known Island instructors. There is a new yoga collective based at Island Cohousing in West Tibsury, and there is Broga (not just for the brothers) and “barefoot boot camp,” a yogic way to start the day (see flyyogamv.com for details on all these).

There is outdoor yoga at Featherstone, yoga and mediation at the Bodhi Path, and a weekly free yoga class at the spectacular Yoga Barn on South Road near the Chilmark town line, Fridays at 6 p.m.

There is free prenatal yoga. There is yoga at Peacegate, at the new YMCA, at the familiar Mansion House. There is senior yoga, relaxation yoga, power yoga, yoga therapeutics, trance dance yoga, Bikram hot yoga, plus Hatha, Vinyassa, Anusara, Iyengar and Kripalu.

For a a day-by-day or town-by-town breakdown of most Island yoga, go to the one-stop Web site marthasvineyardyoga.com, with times, prices, even maps and directions. Namaste.
