Where To Do Outdoor Yoga in Silicon Valley

I don't know about you, but for me, the last place I want to be on a beautiful summer day is cooped up inside a stuffy fitness studio. This can put a kink in your normal workout routine--unless, of course, you take it outside.

Here in the Bay Area, we're lucky to have several outdoor yoga classes and events happening this summer. 

Interested in doing yoga outside? Check out this list of all yoga in the park, outdoor yoga classes, and yoga meetups this summer in San Jose and Silicon Valley.
