Yoga classes offered with riverfront backdrop

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — One group has found a unique way to celebrate the Labor Day holiday with a little wine and yoga.

Bella’s Bar Local in downtown Wilmington offered an alternative to the usual family cookouts and beach.

The bar partnered with a local yoga instructor Monday to offer yoga and wine in Downtown Wilmington. It’s called Vino and Vinyasa. The class is offered on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Yoga Instructor Rebekah Boatwright says it’s one way to have a relaxing evening and it’s for all skills levels. The class is taught in Riverfront Park.

“It’s a beautiful sunset, you have the Battleship and everything that Wilmington has to offer right here, and yoga,” Dennis Mancinelli, Bella’s Bar Local, said. “It makes you feel amazing after you do it. It’s just a lot of fun and you get to have wine afterwards.”

If you’re interested in trying it out, the cost is $10 and you meet at Bella’s Bar Local a few minutes before 7:30pm.

They say it will continue until it gets too cold outside.
