Park Alert:

Public ferry service to the Boston Harbor Islands will be suspended on Thursday, June 12, and Friday, June 13 due to a unique combination of waterline repairs on Georges Island, vessel limitations, and a previously scheduled private event on Spectacle Island. Service to Spectacle Island will resume on Saturday, June 14. Georges will remain closed until repairs are complete. We appreciate your patience and will be offering an additional free ferry day later this season.

Activities, ranger tours, and most programs are included with your ferry ticket.

Juneteenth: Yoga on Spectacle

Commemorate Juneteenth with wellness on the Boston Harbor Islands!

Commemorate Juneteenth with a revitalizing trip to Spectacle Island and a yoga experience overlooking the harbor with instructor Lauren “Lo” Bailey. Lauren is a certified and trauma-informed yoga teacher, meditation guide, workshop & event facilitator, mindfulness specialist, and holistic lifestyle guide.

What to bring: 

  • Yoga mat/towel
  • Re-fillable water bottle
  • Sun protection
  • Lunch/snack (for after the class!)

What to expect (A message from Lo!):

“My class style for this offering is Flow & Connect. We will take a mindful flow for a portion of our session, and we will end with reflection & open discussion. Like all my classes, it is choice-based. Allowing students to practice intuitively. Moving at your own pace. My class is for all levels. I am passionate about creating environments that feel creatively expressive, mindfully tuned in, and grounding. Creating shapes with compassion & curiosity. My flows include optional variations of shapes throughout.

A grounding opening to set the tone, followed by a mindful, creative flow, with options to add or subtract shapes through your intuitive experience throughout class. Transitioning us into a restorative unwinding, leading to a meditative shavasana. I’ll have a question that will be shared before we begin and repeated after to give you a moment of introspection and quiet space when coming out of a flow. We’ll have a few minutes for open discussion for anyone who wishes to share. Expect me always to be my authentic self. Creating an environment that has welcomed it all, including: random dancing in a shape because you enjoy the rhythm of a song, audible breaths, giggles, cries, etc. Show up as you! As always, respect your peers, me, and the environment!”
