Join us for a truly immersive yoga class at Bays Mountain. This class will be given inside Bays Mountain’s one of a kind planetarium theater that has no equal. From dawn to dusk, the planetarium will feature a Sun and Moon that simulates a day’s journey while we do Sun Salutations, Warrior series and balance poses. Concentric, eccentric and isometric contractions will be featured so that students can work to optimize both their strength and balance. Finally, we conclude with a twilight to starry night sky for the restorative portion of the yoga class. All levels are welcome as modifications will be offered. The cost is $12.00 a person and class size is limited, so please sign up soon. Please also wear exercise clothing and bring water with a sealable lid (drinks that can spill are not allowed). Attendees are asked to bring their own mat though there will be some mats available to borrow.
BMP Members receive a 10% discount for this program!
The planetarium theater door will open ~10 minutes prior to start.
Maximum class size: 10 people

Beyond the Sun is about the amazing search for exoplanets. It is a wonderful, animated program for the whole family.
We start our adventure when CELESTE is fighting off sleep by reading a book on astronomy when, through her bedroom window, she receives a visit from MOON and his mischievous helpers!
With the aid of his helpers, Moon leads Celeste on a journey through the Universe to discover what an exoplanet is and how it can be detected. Together they observe rogue planets, oceanic worlds and super-Earths. Moon tells her about exoplanet hunters and how they observe the sky in search of a planet like Earth.
This program includes a brief tour of the current night sky.
Show length ~35 min.
