What makes The Social Yoga unique is that it describes itself as a "nomadic studio" that inhabits cafes, breweries, galleries and other alternative spaces. As well as finding unusual spots to conduct its classes, the October lineup from The Social Yoga puts a novel spin on [mental and physical health and wellness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweat-and-tonics).

At an event called 'Meditation in Tight Spaces, yogis can sign up to meditate inside of a vintage streamline trailer owned by Tin Can Studio. The session is centered around preparing the mind for meditation in unfamiliar and uncomfortable places in the future.

Next month, The Social Yoga will also be hosting 'Fight Club at the Juice Truck,' with an emphasis on [arm balances and intermediate poses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/les-mills-yoga).
