A curated evening of movement and music on the lake at golden hour. Join us on the terrace overlooking Lake St. Clair for an immersive evening where breath, rhythm, and sunset come together in perfect harmony. We’ll begin with an energizing Vinyasa flow led by yoga instructor Dena Bostwick(IG@denadoingherbest), moving to a live DJ set by Konfucious (IG@konfucious_). The music will guide the pace of the practice as we sync breath to rhythm, build heat, and awaken the body.

Through resonant tones and intentional space-holding, Lisa guides participants into deep relaxation and restorative rest. DJ Konfucious blends atmospheric beats and soulful rhythms to create environments that feel both energizing and meditative. His sets have moved crowds everywhere from high-energy fitness studios like Title Boxing, Orange Theory, and F45 to beloved Detroit venues including Spotlite, SPKRBOX, and Willis Show Bar.
