Yoga at the Detroit Zoo

Breathe. Move. Listen. Nature is waiting.

Stretch near the giraffes. Flow beside the rhinos. Pose by the red pandas.

This summer, Summer Yoga brings you to a new corner of the Zoo — with a rotating lineup of featured animals as your backdrop. From the Arctic Ring of Life to the giraffe habitat, no two classes are the same (but all of them are spectacular).

Classes are held on select summer mornings and evenings and guided by certified instructors. Whether you’re new to the mat or a seasoned yogi, this unique outdoor experience invites you to connect with movement, breath and the animals who call the Zoo home.


What to Expect
• A 60-minute yoga class held near a different habitat each week
• Certified instructors leading all-levels sessions
• Complimentary parking and Zoo admission
• Engaging chats with Zoo staff

Admission is for ages 13+ and advanced registration is required.
Please bring your own mat and reusable water bottle.
