This year will be Tucson's first Yoga festival, giving participants the chance to try a variety of classes for free. 

Tucson yogis, be prepared for the best shavasana of your life.

This weekend is the first ever Tucson Yoga Festival which means 7 hours of stretching breathing and vinyasas. 

You'll join this year's featured studios — Yoga Oasis, Tucson Yoga, Grounded Wellness, SUMITS Yoga Tucson, OM Yoga and Luna Yoga — at Reid Park for a variety of free classes.

There will be four different class areas at the festival featuring different styles of yoga such as Vinyasa, Acro, Yin, Yoga Nidra, Hip Hop Yoga and more. There's even a class for kids led by Whole Child Yoga. 

After the festival, stay for the party. A DJ will spin tunes while you hang out in the park, dance or try slack line (think low-key tightrope walking).
