ILWACO, Wash. — The owners of RiversZen Yoga and Ki-Hara Stretching Studio of Astoria will host a grand opening celebration from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday Oct. 1 in honor of their new, second location.

“After many appeals from loyal students in the yoga community on the Washington side, we worked to seek a location in southwest Washington to fill their needs,” RiversZen Yoga owner-operator Dave Stevens says.

The new yoga studio is located at 177 Howerton Way, right on the waterfront of Ilwaco, Washington, with full window views of the harbor.

“We feel this is yet another magical place, like our location on the Riverwalk in Astoria, for group classes and private sessions designed to help you ‘Move Well, Stay Healthy and Be Happy,’” Stevens says, quoting the yoga studio’s motto.

The grand opening event will feature free community yoga, stretching, snacks, and prizes for attendees to win, including yoga and stretching class packages, a Kindle Fire, yoga mats, straps and other fun goodies.

This new location will offer some of the same group classes offered at RiversZen Yoga in Astoria, such as Hatha yoga, resistance stretching, pilates and more, led by the studio’s experienced instructors, including Peggy Stevens, Chandra Stevens and Mario Wilson.

Students who purchase class packages or memberships can attend class at either location in Astoria or Ilwaco.

Registration for classes starts Monday, Oct. 3 and will be held at 7 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 6 p.m., with more classes to be added. Basic yoga equipment, such as mats, straps and blocks are provided. The first visit to RiversZen Yoga is free.
