Lululemon Hosts Asana on LaSalle

West Hartford's newest fitness store, lululemon athletica, hosted a yoga class in the middle of LaSalle Road on Saturday morning.

On Friday, lululemon opened its brand new store to the West Hartford community, pledging a commitment to fitness and the local community.

On Saturday morning, lululemon provided West Hartford with a completely different and unique experience, as hundreds of people – young and old, male and female – participated in Asana on LaSalle.

LaSalle Road was closed to traffic at the intersection with Farmington Ave., right in front of the lululemon store, which now occupies the former Bennett's Card Shop location. The road was closed off for more than an hour as instructors from West Hartford Yoga led participants through a series of poses.

Lululemon will continue to offer complimentary yoga classes every week – but not in the middle of La Salle Road. The classes will be held right in the store, which has modular displays that can be easily moved to create a studio. Classes will take place every Sunday morning at 11 a.m., and will be taught by yoga instructors from throughout the area.
