Find your zen this weekend at Evo

Is it just me or does a short work week feel more exhausting than a regular one? Maybe it's because we're attempting to pack 5 days worth of work into 4 business days, or maybe it's because we were spoiled with one extra day to sleep in. Either way, if you find yourself needing a little zen in your life this weekend, head to Evo in Fremont for a relaxing in-store yoga session. Taking place on Sunday, June 1st at 9:30am, the hour-long practice is designed for all ages/ levels and will be taught by one of my favorite instructors, Yogalife's Frances Hammond.

Tickets are $10 and can be applied to an in-store purchase the day of the event. In stock now Evo has a great selection of activewear from brands like Lucy, PrAna, Sanuk, Burton, The North Face, Patagonia and Volcom.
