Outdoor Colorado yoga classes don't sound especially strange, do they? How about a yoga class held in the middle of a growing protest movement outside the state capitol in Denver?
While this may sound a bit more unorthodox, this is what is regularly happening in the crowd gathered as part of the Occupy Denver rally, one of hundreds of protests that have sprung up worldwide in the style of the ongoing Occupy Wall Street movement.
FOX News Denver noted that as protesters cleaned their encampments outside the capitol building, at least one yoga enthusiast sat down and performed some meditation and deep breathing to cultivate a sense of calm.
Similar reports have filtered out of a number of cities both in the U.S. and abroad. For instance, Yahoo! News published a photo of protesters in Madrid, Spain, practicing yoga in the Puerta del Sol Square to improve their health and wellness prior to an Occupy-affiliated march.
The sense of calm and unity that yoga provides seems to have pervaded many protesters.
"It's not about being against things, it's about being for things," a 33-year-old yoga teacher and protester wrote on the Occupy Sydney website, as reported by Bloomberg.
